dc.description.abstractPurpose: Clinical abrasion of denture teeth has certain implications when dentures are worn in excess of the average useful lifetime. The purpose of this study was to evaluate clinical denture tooth wear over a period of 3 years. Material and methods: The wear of six commercially available denture teeth (Premierdent, Acrotone, vitapan, Rx1, Duravite, and Ivoclar Orthosit) and a seventh combination of teeth was compared. Seventy patients with complete dentures were divided into seven groups of 10 each to form the study population. Results: There were no significant differences among the commercial denture teeth. Porcelain/Vitapan teeth exhibited the highest amount of abrasion. Significant wear was also measured between the Ivoclar Orthosit and Porcelain/Vitapan teeth.en_US
