OBJECTIVE
The objective of the study was to obtain data on prevalence and severity of dental erosion among acid industry workers in Baddi (Himachal Pradesh).
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A cross-sectional study was conducted among 800 battery industry workers. The demographic details were recorded on a prestructured pro forma. Type III examination was done. Dental erosion was recorded based on the index given by Bardsley (simplified scoring criteria for tooth wear index). Appropriate statistical tests were used to interpret the data.
RESULTS
The prevalence of dental erosion was found to be 48.6%. Prevalence increased with the duration of employment. Dental erosion was most commonly found in the labial surfaces of maxillary anterior teeth.
CONCLUSION
Erosion is a condition which is multifactorial and becomes more aggravating in the presence of acidic environment. Therefore, the workers working in such conditions should be more careful, and mandatory policies should also be followed by such industries to maintain the overall health of the workers.
目的
本研究的目的是获取巴迪（喜马偕尔邦）酸工业工人牙齿侵蚀的患病率和严重程度数据。
材料与方法
对800名电池行业工人进行了横断面研究。人口统计学细节记录在预先构建的表格上。进行了III型检查。根据巴兹利给出的指数（牙齿磨损指数简化评分标准）记录牙齿侵蚀情况。使用适当的统计检验来解释数据。
结果
发现牙齿侵蚀的患病率为48.6%。患病率随就业年限增加。牙齿侵蚀最常见于上颌前牙的唇面。
结论
侵蚀是一种多因素疾病，在酸性环境中会变得更加严重。因此，在这种条件下工作的工人应更加小心，此类行业也应遵循强制性政策以维护工人的整体健康。
