What is the Relative
Dentine Abrasivity (RDA) of a toothpaste?
Histological analysis point to clefts in dental hard tissues especially
dentine, marked globular
dentine and increased predentin width (2,7,9).
It has been identified in the dental pulp cells and the
dentine matrix, where under pathological conditions, the growth factor can be released to stimulate angiogenesis (11-13).
In the present study, the prevalence of dental caries according to CAST is presented by giving codes 4-7 for
dentine lesions, codes 3-7 for enamel and
dentine lesions and codes 2, 5-8 for caries experience for comparison with the WHO criterion.

Overbrushing which has worn away the protective enamel from the surface of your teeth leaving the sensitive
dentine exposed.
Teeth can naturally regenerate
dentine without assistance, but only under certain circumstances.
However, GP cannot spontaneously bond to root
dentine [6] or to sealers, leading to microleakage resultant of voids and gaps between GP and sealer [7].
Objective: To compare the remaining
dentine thickness of root canals prepared with K-3 and ProTaper files.
Regenerative endodontics implies that further root maturation results in reestablishment of the pulp
dentine complex.
A study in Sabah region10 demonstrated that out of 148 people inspected, 95 have TW with moderate
dentine involvement and 41 have seriously worn dentition.
