Erosions in younger adults in Germany: results of the 6th German Oral Health Study (DMS • 6).
The prevalence of erosions remains practically unchanged from the Fifth German Oral Health Study (DMS V) of 2014. However, the proportion of people at increased risk has risen sharply. The continued high prevalence of erosions combined with the increased proportion of people with a medium or high risk classification indicates that the prevention and treatment of erosive wear is a clinically relevant issue.
