abfraction
Language: English
Part of speech: noun
Forms: form: abfractions
Etymology: From ab- + fraction (“act of breaking”); from 1991.
Senses: examples: text: Due to the stresses resulting from biomechanical loading forces exerted on the teeth (static, as in swallowing and clenching[,] or cyclic, as in chewing), both enamel and dentin can chip or break away. This loss of tooth substance, which shall be termed Abfraction, is dependent on the magnitude, duration, direction, frequency, and location of the forces. These abfractive lesions are caused by flexure and ultimate material fatigue of susceptible teeth at locations away from the point of loading. Clinical observation of a variety of enamel and dentin lesions due to the shapes, sizes, loci, and frequency warrants a new and distinct classification.
