Abstrakt: This article discusses the changes that extensive tooth wear, particularly wear caused by processes of attrition, may promote in the occlusion of the dentition. It is stated that it is uncertain whether conditions such as bruxism and temporomandibular joint disorders contribute to the attrition that may lead to malocclusion.
