Zusammenfassung
The purpose of this paper is to apply current technology using intraoral scanners to enable a more objective diagnosis of dental wear. An evaluation study on 53 Denstritry students using as a recording medium of both arches intraoral scanner True Definition 3M was performed. To assess the Smith & Knignt wear index was used by applying to, palatal / lingual and occlusal / incisal from the incisor to first molar buccal surfaces. The results showed increased wear surface in the anteriorincisal group (superior) palatal, incisal canines, occlusal upper first premolars and first molars occlusal. The locations of the wear surfaces found in this study are consistent with data found in the scientific literature. The intraoral scanner is shown under the conditions of this study, as an effective tool in the detection of dental wear.
