		ASTM D968 measures the resistance of organic coatings to abrasion produced by abrasive falling onto coatings applied to a plane rigid surface, such as a metal or glass panel.
		Method ASTM D 658 covers the determination of the resistance of organic coatings to abrasion produced by an air blast of abrasive on coatings applied to a plane, rigid surface, such as a metal or glass panel.
		Abrasion resistance can be calculated in three ways: as loss in weight at a specified number of abrasion cycles, as loss in weight per cycle, or as number of cycles required to remove a unit amount of coating thickness.

	Corneal Abrasion - Definition, Description, Demographics, Causes and symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment, Prognosis, ...
		When a corneal abrasion occurs, the conjunctiva, or the white of the eye, turns red, as new blood vessels form and those present enlarge, in an attempt to increase blood flow to the eye as it attempts to bring to the eye those cells needed for the healing of the cornea.
		But if a corneal abrasion is deep and penetrates the next layer of the cornea, then scarring is possible and complete healing of the abrasion may be delayed as long as three months.
		The pain of a corneal abrasion can be treated with drugs such as homatropine which keep the eye in a dilated state and stop the spasm of the iris, a major cause of discomfort for the individual with a corneal abrasion.

	Handbook of Ocular Disease Management - Corneal Abrasion and Recurrent Corneal Erosion
		Symptoms of acute pain and a history of recent trauma are obviously the tell-tale indicators of a corneal abrasion, but the patient may also report photophobia, pain upon extraocular muscle movement, excessive tearing, blepharospasm, foreign body sensation and blurry vision.
		Patients with RCE usually present to the office with a history of corneal abrasion in the involved eye, often months or years previously, and a chief complaint of recurrent episodes of ocular pain that may also include foreign body sensation, photophobia, blepharospasm, decreased vision or lacrimation upon awakening or following eye rubbing or eye opening.
		For a corneal abrasion, first evert the eyelid and scrutinize the palpebral conjunctiva, ocular surface and fornices to rule out the presence of foreign material.

	Tooth Abrasion
		Tooth abrasion can be defined as the permanent loss of tooth structure that can occur on various tooth surfaces including the cutting surface, outer enamel layer and even exposed root surfaces.
		Quick tooth abrasion on the other hand can cause irreversible damage to the pulp and lead to the consequences of tooth abrasion, which not only include crocked teeth but also increased tooth sensitivity, infection and ultimately loss of the tooth.
		Each case of tooth abrasion is different and therefore the range of corrective options varies from person to person although the most common treatments include bonding, Cap or a filling to restore the appearance of the tooth.

	Air Abrasion (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Air abrasion uses the kinetic energy principle, in which the small particles bounce off of the tooth and remove the decay in the process.
		While air abrasion is also effective in repairing cracks in teeth, and discolored spots, prepare teeth for cosmetic bonding, it is primarily used to treat small cavities and areas of the teeth and can often be used without local anesthesia.
		The advantages of air abrasion are: more of your tooth is preserved, there is little or no discomfort, and usually no numbness is needed, and the procedure is faster.

		While the world at large thinks of "abrasion" as a wearing or grinding away by friction or as an irritation, we who are s/m-aware know that abrasion is an erotic stimulation of the skin by rubbing, scratching, or pricking.
		While abrasion may not be very dramatic in presentation (at least, not at first), it is an intense scene, and the Top may choose not to allow any letup in the intensity, although the level of sensation is best varied throughout the scene.
		Abrasion can be a light or a heavy scene, or anywhere in between.

	AGD - What Is Air Abrasion?
		Air abrasion, also called "microabrasion" and kinetic cavity preparation, is a method of tooth structure removal considered to be an effective alternative to the standard dental drill.
		Air abrasion procedures can leave an accumulation of harmless, dusty particle debris in the patient's mouth, resulting in a gritty feeling that is eradicated by rinsing.
		Your dentist may require you to wear protective glasses during the procedure, and a rubber dam may be applied inside your mouth and around the tooth area being treated to serve as a particle barrier.
