Objective: To summarize the diagnostic protocol and treatment of dental erosion due to GERD. Methods: A Medline literature search was performed to identify articles associated with a dental approach to GERD. Results: The dental professional must carry out a diagnostic protocol, which includes collecting data on the patient's medical and dietary history, occupational/recreational history, dental history, and oral hygiene methods. Intraoral, head and neck, and salivary function examinations should be performed to expose the dental implications of GERD symptoms. Conclusion: Diagnosing the cause of erosive tooth wear can help prevent further damage. Patients must be informed about how to prevent GERD.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessDental ErosionGastro-esophageal Reflux DiseaseArticle10.4314/ahs.v14i2.28142481486253206022-s2.0-84902329079Q3WOS:000344302300029Q3
