This week I have a case of toothpick abrasion. This case was from the patient holding a toothpick between their premolars for large portions of the day. Note the notching between the two maxillary premolars. I don’t have a time frame of how long this has been going on. And just in case anyone is wondering there is interproximal decay between the maxillary and mandibular premolars.
For more information and other radiographs of abrasion check out my page on abrasion.
Enjoy!
occusal caries 47, occlusal and distal caries on 46
Yes on both. 🙂
