Dental erosion is characterized by progressively destroyed teeth, which has no relation to bacteria but to chemicals. Some internal factors, such as gastroesophageal reflux induced by bulimia, anorexia, gastrointestinal diseases, or drugs, and external factors, such as diet, drugs, and occupational acid exposure, are considered promotive factors for this disease. This article presents a patient suffering from severe dental erosion in the whole dentition, especially in the maxillary teeth, due to gastroesophageal reflux induced by glucocorticoid therapy for optic neuritis. This article discusses the mechanism between optic neuritis glucocorticoid therapy and dental erosion.
牙齿酸蚀症的特征是牙齿逐渐被破坏,与细菌无关,而是与化学物质有关。一些内部因素,如贪食症、厌食症、胃肠道疾病或药物引起的胃食管反流,以及饮食、药物和职业性酸暴露等外部因素,被认为是该病的促进因素。本文介绍了一位因视神经炎糖皮质激素治疗引起的胃食管反流而患有全口严重牙齿酸蚀症的患者,尤其是上颌牙齿。本文讨论了视神经炎糖皮质激素治疗与牙齿酸蚀症之间的机制。
