Notes	It is well known that the teeth of prehistoric people and today's primitive tribes are clearly worn out. Unlike prehistoric and primitive tribes, who ate foodstuffs mixed with soil, in highly civilized tribes, teeth wear less as a result of the refinement of foodstuffs and eating methods, although they are subject to the same process. However, as Broca (1879) said, no matter how hard a dental material is, it is prone to wear out due to the grinding activity of opposing teeth and the wearing effect of chewed food. However, as we said above, the degree of wear is different in various tribes.
