Aim: The aim of this study was to examine and explain the various methods available to rate the erosion damage, and on which teeth and tooth surfaces of erosion damage mostly occurs in children and adolescents.Method: A literature review was conducted, based on 15 scientific articles that have been reviewed, evaluated and analyzed. Articles were searched for in the database PubMed.Result: Six of the articles used the TWI (tooth wear index), which is an index to diagnose the tooth wear in the primary and permanent dentition. Eight articles used other indices as they considered that the TWI was not sufficiently developed to register the degree of tooth wear on some teeth. Tooth wear in the primary dentition occurs most often in the canines and incisors. Tooth wear in the permanent dentition was found in the literature to be mostly occurring on the occlusal / incisal surfaces of all teeth and tooth surfaces.LyssnaConclusion: There is no common index in the articles but many of them use the TWI.

Abstract: Syftet med denna studie har varit att undersöka hur en grupp äldrepeagogstudenter upplever sin kommande yrkesroll och hur professionsutvecklingen för äldrepedagoger ser ut. Vi har undersökt hur professionsutveckling ser ut utifrån den vetenskapliga litteraturens uppställda professionskriterier och hur dessa professionskriterier bedöms ha betydelse för formandet av en profession. För att komma åt våra grundläggande frågeställningar och för att förstå äldrepedagogers utveckling består det empiriska materialet dels av en litteraturstudie och dels av kvalitativt öppna intervjuer. För att tolka och förstå empirin är teorier kring profession, professionsutveckling och socialkonstruktivism centrala i studien. De kriterier vi utgått från är följande: professionell kunskap bör vara förankrad i en systematisk teori, den professionellt utbildade har auktoritet, de professionella ska inneha etiska regler och yrkeskåren ska ha bildat en egen organisation.
