Prevalencia de las lesiones no cariosas en pacientes de 20 a 50 años de la Universidad de las Américas, durante el periodo marzo-abril

OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study is to define the prevalence of no carious lesions in patients aged 20 to 50 years at the University of the Americas. METHODS: In 60 patients aged 20-50 years, a clinical examination was performed to evaluate the number of patients with non-carious cervical lesions, of which three types of lesions were considered: abrasion, erosion and absfraction. This will verify if there is a relationship between non-carious lesions, gender and age. In addition to the clinical examination, a survey was conducted to determine which factors are most associated with the prevalence and onset of NCCLs. RESULTS: Of the total number of patients examined, 70 percent had NCCLs, with erosion being the most common with 49 percent, followed by Abrasion with 31 percent and finally absfraction with 20 percent. It was determined that NCCLs are more prevalent in females with 66 percent, as opposed to males with 34 percent. The study of the prevalence of non-carious cervical lesions in patients 20 to 50 years of age showed that there is no greater predisposition for either sex to have or present an LCNC. CONCLUSIONS: It was concluded that a high prevalence of NCCLs was confirmed in the population group analyzed. Finally it was understood that a previous review of the literature facilitates and facilitates the identification of NCCLs.
