The aim of the present study was to investigate the influence of some factors associated with occlusal tooth wear in a selected high-wear Swedish sample. The material comprised 59 persons having a mean age of 35 yr within the range 16-70 yr, the criteria for selection being a full or near-full complement of natural teeth, and the presence of definite clinical signs of occlusal wear. A dentition wear index, in addition to anterior, posterior, and arch subindices, was derived from a tooth-by-tooth evaluation of casts. Factors which were found to correlate significantly with increased occlusal wear were age, sex, self-perception of wear, number of teeth, and general health, as well as a number of variables from study-cast analysis. On the basis of the findings, not only is the multifactorial etiology of occlusal tooth wear a reality, but so, too, is the complex interdependence of these factors in the severity of wear.
本研究的目的是调查在一个选定的瑞典高磨损样本中，一些与牙齿磨耗相关的因素的影响。研究材料包括59名年龄在16至70岁之间、平均年龄为35岁的人，选择标准是天然牙完整或接近完整，且存在明确的牙齿磨耗临床体征。除了前牙、后牙和牙弓子指数外，牙列磨损指数是通过对模型进行逐颗牙齿评估得出的。研究发现，与牙齿磨耗增加显著相关的因素包括年龄、性别、对磨损的自我认知、牙齿数量、总体健康状况，以及模型分析中的一些变量。基于这些发现，牙齿磨耗的多因素病因不仅是现实存在的，而且这些因素在磨损严重程度方面的复杂相互依存关系也是如此。
