This webinar will inform attendees on the different clinical wear indices and explain how to use the Basic Erosive Wear Examination (BEWE) to look for signs of early wear.
Attendees will learn how to use intraoral scans to look for signs of early wear and understand how intraoral scans will be used in the future to monitor wear.
Learning outcomes
At the end of this presentation, attendees will:
- Know how to use the BEWE to assess and document tooth wear in clinical notes
- Understand what to look for when assessing for signs of early acid damage or faceting
- Understand how intraoral scans can be used now and will be used in the future to assess and monitor wear.
