| Abstract: |
Very severe forms of dental erosion are uncommon finding in adolescent population. This paper describes a 17-year old female who complained of increased teeth sensitivity to cold temperature and to touch. Dental examination revealed extensive and severe pattern of dental erosion of all teeth typical for intrinsic causes of dental erosion. She also completed a questionnaire investigating any association between the presence of erosion and possible etiological factors. Questionnaire responses, heteroanamnestic data and dental status confirmed our preliminary diagnosis of bulimia nervosa that resulted in a rarely significant dental destruction for that age in only three years period. |
