Introduction: dental erosion is the pathological, chronic, localized and painless loss of dental tissues, produced by the chemical action of acids, where the action of microorganisms is not involved. In recent years, a significant increase in the prevalence of this pathology has been observed, especially in children and adolescents. Objectives: to determine the prevalence of dental erosion in temporary dentition using the Basic Erosive Wear Examination Index (BEWE) in children between 5 and 12 years of age, and to determine the eating habits that may favor the development of these lesions. Methods: a cross-sectional study was carried out on a sample of 391 children. A survey was conducted where eating habits were analyzed and a clinical examination of the temporary teeth was performed using the BEWE index. Results: the prevalence of dental erosion in the studied sample was 19.7 %, with mild lesions being most common. Conclusions: in all, 30.62 % of the studied population had a low risk of dental erosion, and risk was seen to increase with consumption of acidic beverages (soft drinks, isotonic drinks and fruit juices) and acidic fruits such as oranges, grapes and apples.
牙侵蚀是指在无微生物参与的情况下，由酸的化学作用导致的牙体组织病理性、慢性、局限性且无痛性丧失。近年来，已观察到这种病理状况的患病率显著上升，尤其是在儿童和青少年中。目的：使用基本侵蚀性磨损检查指数（BEWE）确定5至12岁儿童乳牙列中牙侵蚀的患病率，并确定可能促进这些病变发展的饮食习惯。方法：对391名儿童样本进行了横断面研究。开展了一项调查，分析饮食习惯，并使用BEWE指数对乳牙进行临床检查。结果：研究样本中牙侵蚀的患病率为19.7%，轻度病变最为常见。结论：总体而言，30.62%的研究人群患牙侵蚀的风险较低，且随着酸性饮料（软饮料、等渗饮料和果汁）以及橙子、葡萄和苹果等酸性水果的摄入量增加，风险会升高。
