Non-Carious Cervical Lesion: Case Report

Abstract

Non-Carious Cervical Lesions (NCCL) are characterized by irreversible and gradual loss of mineralized tissue near enamelcement junction, and they may cause dentin hypersensitivity, characterized by an acute and short-term pain. They can be treated through restorative procedures and removal of etiologic agents. This case report used composite resin for restoring one NCCL in inferior premolar. Selective acid etching and two-step adhesive system were done. The final result provided a satisfactory aesthetic, besides eliminating dentin hypersensitivity.
