Prevalence of non-carious defects in the cervical of teeth among the adult population of the Volgograd region

Today, many specialists in the field of dentistry note an increasing trend in the prevalence of non-carious lesions localized in the cervical area of the teeth among various population groups. There is no single hypothesis for the mechanisms of etiopathogenesis and risk factors for the development of this pathology. In the process of a retrospective study of medical records of patients who applied to dental institutions in the Volgograd region, data on the prevalence and percentage of each nosology in various age groups of the adult population were obtained and analyzed. Data analysis showed that almost every third (29,4 %) patient has non-carious lesions in the cervical of the teeth, which substantiates the relevance of the problem of optimizing treatment and preventive measures in patients with non-carious lesions.
