A number of indices have been developed for the measurement of tooth surface loss but they have not achieved universal acceptance. The aim of this study was to develop a new index suitable for the monitoring of incisal/occlusal tooth wear on serial study models. The new index recorded incisal/cuspal wear for individual teeth. Each tooth was scored on a six-point scale ranging from 0-5. Six assessors evaluated the index and it was applied to baseline and sequential models taken after 20 years. The study demonstrated the value of maintaining long-term dental records in the form of study models for monitoring progressive tooth wear.
已经开发出多种用于测量牙齿表面损失的指数，但它们尚未得到普遍认可。本研究的目的是开发一种新的指数，适用于在系列研究模型上监测切牙/咬合面牙齿磨损。新指数记录单个牙齿的切缘/牙尖磨损情况。每颗牙齿按0至5的六点量表评分。六名评估者对该指数进行了评估，并将其应用于基线模型和20年后获取的连续模型。该研究证明了以研究模型的形式保存长期牙科记录以监测渐进性牙齿磨损的价值。
