The treatment of replacing missing functional teeth (due to various schools of concepts), as well as the extensive possibilities of gaps, that may occur in the oral cavity makes it often extremely difficult for the dentist in the practice, to decide which form of prosthesis is right. In this study 996 laboratory work procedures from 5 laboratories in Germany were photographed after completion and evaluated for construction faults. Although a large percentage of the work was extensure prosthesis (more than 50% combined fixed--removable and telescopic procedure) 33.4% showed construction faults, whereas 65% of the work was rated acceptable.

It is differentiated from TOOTH ATTRITION in that this type of wearing away is the result of tooth-to-tooth contact, as in mastication, occurring only on the occlusal, incisal, and proximal surfaces. It differs also from TOOTH EROSION, the progressive loss of the hard substance of a tooth by chemical processes not involving bacterial action.
