Comparative Analysis of Natural Tooth Wear against Various Prosthetic Crown Materials
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Natural tooth wear is an inevitable physiological process that occurs due to mastication, parafunctional habits, and aging. However, the introduction of prosthetic crowns in dental rehabilitation has led to concerns regarding the wear of opposing natural teeth. This review explores the comparative analysis of natural tooth wear caused by different prosthetic crown materials, emphasizing recent advancements, advantages, and future directions in this domain. The discussion highlights how the hardness, surface roughness, and material composition of crown materials impact tooth wear. Furthermore, advancements in materials science, such as the development of monolithic ceramics and hybrid materials, have significantly improved the biocompatibility and wear resistance of dental prosthetics. A future perspective focuses on the need for clinical trials and advanced in vitro testing to optimize material properties for minimal wear of natural teeth while maintaining functional efficiency
