Lesions affect the facial aspect of the teeth have their drawbacks on the individual psychological status. Abfraction affects the gingival third of the teeth on the facial surface. It mainly affects premolars and anterior teeth. Bacteria have no role in abfraction, so it may affect individuals ...
This article discusses abfraction or disappearing tooth structure and how registered dental hygienists should handle abfraction lesions. Topics discussed include a study by Nascimento et al on the etiology, diagnosis, and treatment options for abfraction lesions, its recommendation on when abfractions shou...
Importantly, abfraction lesions have not been reported in pre-contemporary populations. It is important that oral health professionals understand that abfraction is still a theoretical concept, as it is not backed up by appropriate clinical evidence. It is recommended that destructive, irreversible ...
Are non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) a consequence of abfraction? Examination of ancient skeletal remains have not found such tooth lesions although the teeth show occlusal wear. In support of the process of abfraction, cervical enamel is more brittle than dentine and there is poorly developed...

Etiopathogenesis is related to occlusal stress that causes microfractures in enamel and dentin in the cervical region. The restoration treatment is ...
Dental attrition (anterior, posterior) was assessed by 2 calibrated experienced examiners on diagnostic casts on a tooth-by-tooth basis, using a previously well established ordinal scale. Abfraction lesions (V-shaped, in the cervical region) and occlusal pits were recorded if these clinical signs ...

Non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) are defined as the loss of dental hard tissue at the cement-enamel junction. Erosion, abrasion, and attrition have been associated with this disorder. Objective: Recently, occlusal stress causing of cervical enamel cracks (abfraction) has been considered as an...
