Erosion is a cut produced by the repetitive friction of one element against other. Tooth erosion can be a result of brushing of teeth with a hard dental brush for a long while in the same direction of movement, can be the result of weak tooth enamel or acids in the food intake. To avoid this problem, it is recommended to use circular patterns to brush teeth, the use of a not so hard brush and a balanced diet. The erosion can be left alone, but if it is accumulating food deposits then it is better to fill it with a permanent dental fill. Fluoridation of teeth help to defend the teeth against erosion.

What is dental erosion?
Dental erosion is a permanent loss of all or part of a tooth due to the gradual chemical breakdown of the teeth. This breakdown is triggered by the introduction of some type of acid to the surface of the tooth. When regular dental hygiene is not practiced, the acid gradually wears away at first the Enamel (the outer layer of tooth) coating the exterior of the tooth, then advances to begin breaking down the dentin that makes up the main body of the tooth. Unlike many health issues, dental erosion cannot be reversed. The only solutions are to halt the erosion and use modern techniques to rebuild the damaged area of the tooth, or to replace the tooth altogether.

What is wearing away of tooth?
Damage to your teeth or tooth wear can be caused by any process that results in loss of integrity of the tooth surface. Tooth decay is a bacteria-caused form of tooth damage. The other forms of tooth damage are the result of mechanical or chemical assault to the tooth structure which may be brought about by your daily habits for example grinding in your sleep and tooth brushing. Acquired tooth wear can be classified into attrition, abrasion, erosion, abfraction and fracture. http://www.intelligentdental.com/2010/02/20/how-your-daily-habits-can-hurt-your-teeth/
