title: Wear resistance and microhardness of human teeth.
abstract: The dependence between the wear resistance and microhardness of the different tissues of human teeth has been studied. During these experiments the proportionality between the wear volume of the tissues under study and their microhardness (by indentation and scratching methods) has been observed.
