pubmed-article:16700271 | pubmed:abstractText | A case of localized anterior tooth surface loss (TSL) with an unusual aetiology is reported. Whilst suffering from a bout of acute depression and anxiety, a 29-year-old female caused significant trauma to her anterior dentition with a pair of fabric scissors. The presentation and management of this case is described. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Although tooth surface loss is a common clinical finding in many patient groups, practitioners should be aware of possible unusual aetiologies which may be involved. | lld:pubmed |
