[Diet as an important factor in the etiology of dental erosions].
A questionnaire study was carried out on 120 healthy subjects of both sexes. The age of the examined population was between 18-30 years. The subjects were divided into 2 groups comprising the same number of participants. The first and second group consisted of patients with and without enamel erosions respectively. The consumption of food like fruit juice, apples, citrus fruit, coca-cola, fizzy drinks and yoghurt and its influence on the frequency of enamel erosions were estimate. The analysis of the obtained results pointed to an existing relationship between diet and the existence of enamel erosions.
