| dc.description.abstract | Dental erosion is irreversible loss of hard dental substance mostly due to acidic drinks and food. Modern lifestyle and changes in eating habits have led to increased consumption of such products causing an increased prevalence. Still, risk factors and mechanisms of development are unclear as well as the role of salivary components in protection of dental tissue against erosive challenges. This thesis aimed to investigate the risk indicators of dental erosion in experimental mouse models and humans. The first study implemented in this thesis developed a mouse model for comprehensive studying of dental erosion in scanning electron microscope. In the second study, a model of erosion in mice with impaired salivary gland function was developed resulting in more severe erosions compared to control mice and mice with normal salivary gland function. The third study investigated the relationship between factors of environment and genetic factors, i.e. salivary aquaporins in humans. Results pointed at relationship between genes and environment for development of dental erosion in humans. This thesis contributes to further understanding of risk factors of dental erosion. | en_US |
