Eligibility

Age
18 Years to 99 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: - The volunteers need to wear a full denture in upper jaw and lower jaw. - 40-65 years of age - unstimulated and stimulated saliva flow rate of > 0,25 and >0,75 ml/min, respectively

Exclusion criteria

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
After averaging the surface loss calculations per tooth site (sample area), mean tissue loss and mean standard deviation for each tooth site and total tissue loss per person are calculated over each study period. The primary analysis estimates the erosive effect of the consumption of orange juice on the outcome variable the profilometrically measured tissue loss, expressed in micrometers.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The secondary analysis will evaluate surface loss distribution by tooth site (occlusal, palatal, buccal, and upper / lower jaw, left/right quadrant).
