– Longitudinal data of 50‐yr‐old men, followed for 10 yr, were analyzed to identify variables which may be associated with healthy tooth surface loss. Three types of longitudinal models were used, arriving at similar conclusions. Predictors of sound tooth surface loss with aging included pocket depth, mobility, and recession.
