Abstract	The objective of the investigation is to evaluate the abrasion in 3 types of acrylic teeth with similar characteristics with two abrasive agents used during the hygiene by an in vitro study, taking into account that abrasion is a type of wear that occurs in a pathological way on dental structure by mechanical processes from foreign objects introduced into the mouth. The present research work was carried out with artificial teeth with characteristics and similar economic value in the Ecuadorian market, belonging to 3 commercial houses, of which 20 pieces of each brand were taken, having a total of 60 pieces of which 50 percent Were brushed with toothpaste and the rest with neutral soap in order to know if any of the pieces has greater susceptibility to wear with some of the two cleaning agents. Pieces 2.1 and 2.2 were prepared to be measured with a digital calibrator, after this procedure depending on the group to which they belonged, the acrylic was brushed for 540 minutes with an electric brush to simulate brushing, recharging the agent Cleaning every 6 minutes an approximate amount to one gram, after brushing the parts were measured again with the digital calibrator and from the results obtained was compared to know the amount of dental structure that had been lost. The results were evaluated by the Anderson Darling tests to know the normality of the data obtained from 30 samples for each of the cleaning agents. As a result, toothpaste produced the highest amount of wear on the acrylic pieces, with only a group of them being more susceptible to abrasion while soap remained almost the same for all three commercial brands. In conclusion, toothpaste produces a significant wear that can cause major complications in the edentulous patient who uses removable prosthesis, so it is necessary to provide indications on how to clean the prosthesis and to take into account that the acrylic pieces are prone to wear at the moment of Choose the teeth for the preparation of the prosthesis.
