Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Adults with an ASA score of 1 with a rehabilited dentition

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: An ASA score of 2 or higher, severe periodontal disease (Dutch periodontal screening index, DPSI > 2) and an unrehabilitated dentition

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
From all participants the saliva total protein concentration will be determined. Also the loss of hydroxyapatite after an erosive challenge will be measured. The correlation between the total protein concentration of saliva and the susceptibility to erosive wear will be calculated.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
From all participants the saliva composition (proteins and minerals), saliva characteristics (pH, buffer capacity, viscosity) and pellicle composition (proteins) will be determined. The correlation between different saliva parameters and the susceptibility to erosive wear will be calculated.	—
