Dental Erosion in children is an insidious and subtle process that often goes unnoticed. Local and habitual factors like frequent consumption of acidic food or drinks, environmental exposure to acids or systemic factors such as reflux of gastric acids can predispose to the erosive process. Clinicians could endeavor to execute conscientious and diligent screening to allow early detection and identify the source of this deleterious process. Early intervention and prevention can then prevent and preempt dentinal sensitivity, loss of occlusal vertical dimension and the impact on aesthetics and self esteem that is consequential to the erosive process. This text provides a compilation and synopsis of the latest evidence pertaining to the topic of Dental Erosion gleaned from volumes of literature. This book offers recommendatory guidelines towards the clinical management of the pernicious process of erosion coupled with useful insights into the authors' personal experiences in the field of Pedodontics and Preventive Dentistry. This treatise would definitely prove to be a valuable guide and asset to pediatricians, pediatric dentists, general practitioners and restorative dentists.
