Radiological analysis of the relationship between occlusal tooth wear and mandibular alveolar bone density and height

Conclusions: Occlusal tooth wear does not result in any radiologically identifiable changes in the alveolar bone during the initial stages of wear; however, significant increases in both ABD and ABH may be observed as tooth wear progresses.
