Clinical research of cervical non-carious lesion restoration

Abstract

The therapy of non-caries cervical lesions is an important problem in restorative dentistry, for the ambiguous aetiology, clinical diagnoses and for the selection of restorative procedure. Aim: The aim of this work was to clinically check the efficiency of non-caries cervical lesions restoration depending on materials used for restorative fillings. Materials and methods: Clinical researches covered 62 teeth of different morphology group at the patients of both gender and of different age. The restoration of gingival lesions, with no previous preparation, was done with composite adhesive system SINGLE BOND/Valux Plus (3M) (30 teeth) and with campomer DYRACT AO (Dentsplay) (32 teeth). The fillings were estimated on the checkups which took place on 3,6 and12 months applying modified criteria according to Ridge and Cvar. Results: The acquired results showed that after 3 to 6 months there were no changes at none of examined parameters and all the fillings got maximal mark A. 12 months latter, in the two cases with composite filling, the marginal adaptation got the mark B (607%). The marginal adaptation at two teeth restored with compomers got the mark B (6.3%) Postoperative sensitiveness phenomenon, marginal discoloration and secondary caries weren’t registered in none of the cases after the observation period of 12 months. Conclusion: For the restoration of non-caries cervical lesions, composite materials with suitable adhesive system and the new generation of compomers could be used. .
