Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease symptoms and tooth wear in patients with Sjögren’s syndrome

The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of gastrooesophageal reflux disease (GORD) symptoms and tooth wear in patients with Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) compared with matched controls. GORD symptoms were assessed for 33 SS patients and 20 age- and sex-matched controls. Tooth wear was assessed...
