CRUZ DA SILVA, Erika Thaís; GADELHA VASCONCELOS, Rodrigo y GADELHA VASCONCELOS, Marcelo. Non-carious cervical injuries: etiological, clinical and therapeutic considerations. Rev Cubana Estomatol [online]. 2019, vol.56, n.4 Epub 15-Feb-2020. ISSN 1561-297X.
Introduction:
Non-carious cervical lesions are dental lesions of a multifactorial etiology, without the involvement of bacteria.
Objective:
Describe the clinical characteristics, etiology and treatment of non-carious cervical lesions
Methods:
A bibliographic review was conducted of studies published in the last five years (2014-2018) by searching the databases PubMED / Medline, Lilacs, Science Direct, SciELO (Scientific Electronic Library) and Google Scholar. The following descriptors were used: "non-carious cervical lesions", "dental abrasion", "dental erosion", "dental abfraction" and "dental attrition. After careful filtering, 26 articles and two books were selected for inclusion in the study.
Data analysis and integration:
Non-carious cervical lesions are commonly classified as abrasion, abfraction, erosion and attrition. These lesions may present various forms, but they are all grouped in a single generic class. They are lesions that cause the gradual loss of mineralized dental tissue, which may bring countless consequences to the affected tooth.
Conclusions:
For a correct diagnosis and treatment decision, these lesions must be seen under their multifactorial etiological aspect. Various therapeutic possibilities may be used in the treatment of these lesions, and it is necessary for the clinician to know the main etiological factors and clinical characteristics that differentiate them.
