What is it about?
Robot simulation of random toothbrushing of human sponsored teeth in a validated artificial oral cavity revealed after simulated 3 years typical wear patterns with positive input (dental calculus removal) and negative input (hard tissue loss, hypersensitivity of teeth).

Why is it important?
The unique Micro-Abrasion around teeth influences the personal oral hygiene philosophy by optimal brushing strokes with soft brushes and hygiene gels, tablets or less-abrasive dentifrices.
Perspectives
The article will change the oral hygiene education, the way dental hygienists treat their patients and the production of oral hygiene products.
