DENTAL BIOCORROSION: A LITERATURE REVIEW
Main Article Content
Abstract
Biocorrosion is the tooth demineralization caused by frequent exposure to intrinsic and/or extrinsic acids. The aim of this study was to review the literature on the prevalence, etiology, diagnosis, prevention, treatment and monitoring of biocorrosion. An advanced search was carried out in the databases PubMed, Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (BVS) and Portal Periódicos CAPES using the health sciences descriptors DeCS and MeSH. Articles published in scientifc journals in the last 10 years were included, in their full versions, in Portuguese, English and Spanish. Duplicate articles, books and theses were excluded. In the end, 5,474 articles were found and, after reading the titles and abstracts, 40 articles were selected for full reading. Biocorrosion of dental tissues is increasingly common in the general population; currently, around 29% of adults show signs of the disease. For this reason, it should be diagnosed as early as possible to avoid serious damage to the tooth structure. Thus, dental surgeons should be aware of oral exposure to gastric acids and eating habits with frequent consumption of acidic foods or drinks, which are the main etiological agents of this condition, while recognizing the associated clinical signs. Prevention is important at all stages, and treatment varies among direct restorations, indirect restorations or full crowns. In addition, patient counseling and monitoring of this condition are fundamental. Therefore, preventive measures are indispensable to avoid or halt the progression of the disease. Treatment should prioritize minimally invasive approaches, and it is crucial to monitor them to ensure good control of this condition.
