The present-day terminology and definitions of tooth wear are not unambiguous. For diagnosing tooth wear, however, it is essential that they are unambiguous. In this article a proposal is presented for a tooth wear evaluation system with simplified definitions. This system consists ofa number of modules and can be used for various aspects of the diagnostic procedure. It can be used for the quantification of tooth wear, both for periodic screening and for the monitoring of tooth wear in individual patients. The scoring of occlusal/incisal tooth wear as well as of non-occlusal/non-incisal tooth wear is possible. The evaluative system is also suitable for determining which type of tooth wear, such as attrition, abrasion and erosion, is most likely to have caused any observed loss of hard tooth tissue.
目前关于牙齿磨损的术语和定义并不明确。然而，对于诊断牙齿磨损而言，这些术语和定义必须明确。本文提出了一个具有简化定义的牙齿磨损评估系统。该系统由多个模块组成，可用于诊断过程的各个方面。它可用于牙齿磨损的量化，既适用于定期筛查，也适用于对个体患者牙齿磨损情况的监测。可以对咬合面/切缘牙齿磨损以及非咬合面/非切缘牙齿磨损进行评分。该评估系统还适用于确定哪种类型的牙齿磨损，如磨耗、磨损和侵蚀，最有可能导致观察到的硬组织牙齿丧失。
