OBJECTIVE To describe the prevalence of dental erosion and associated factors in preschool children in Guangxi and Hubei provinces of China. METHODS Dental examinations were carried out on 1949 children aged 3-5 years. Measurement of erosion was confined to primary maxillary incisors. The erosion index used was based upon the 1993 UK National Survey of Children's Dental Health. The children's...

The aim of this study was to find out correlation between dental erosion and its impact on different age groups. It is often difficult to compare the outcomes of different epidemiological studies on dental erosion due to the use of different examination standards, including scoring systems, samples and groups examined. Permanent incisors and first permanent molars of 210 patients having age 06 ...

The current state of the art in erosion research does not provide answers about the “where” and “when” of wind erosion in European agricultural lands. Questions about the implications for the agricultural productivity remain unanswered. Tackling this research gap, the study provides a more comprehensive understanding of the spatial patterns of land susceptibility to wind erosion in European agr...

Acidic soft drinks, including sports drinks, have been implicated in dental erosion with limited supporting data in scarce erosion studies worldwide. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of dental erosion in a sample of athletes at a large Midwestern state university in the USA, and to evaluate whether regular consumption of sports drinks was associated with dental erosion....

The investigation of basins for planning soil conservation requires a selective approach to identify smaller hydrological units, which would be suitable for more efficient and targeted conservation management programmes. One criterion, generally used to determine the vulnerability of catchments to erosion, is the sediment yield of a basin. In India, sediment yield data are generally not collect...
