| Abstract | |
A Non Carious Cervical Lesion is the loss of tooth structure at the cemento-enamel junction level that is unrelated to caries. These lesions can affect tooth sensitivity, plaque retention, caries incidence, structural integrity and pulpal vitality. Erosion, abrasion and abfraction are believed to be causative in the formation of non-carious cervical lesions in this vulnerable area of enamel. This case report presents a 40-year-old female patient with the chief complaint of sensitivity to cold in upper posterior teeth. |
