Sažetak
Aim: The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence and distribution of noncarious cervical lesions (NCL) in adult patients and to correlate the occurrence of cervical lesions with oral status, dietary and functional habits, age and sex. Materials and methods: The survey involved 120 subjects. After the clinical examination, the respondents filled out a questionnaire composed of 18 multiple-choose questions. The collected data were statistically processed using Microsoft Office Excel, and MedCalc with the significance level of 0.05. Results: From 3137 examined teeth in the sample, 203 NCLs were discovered, at 41.6% of subjects. The number of non-carious lesions significantly increases with age, whereas the prevalence with respect to the sex is similar. Significantly more lesions were detected in the post-canine sector (74.88%) than in the anterior region (25.12%). The analysis of the influence of certain dietary habits showed a significant association between the emergence of NCL with the consumption of sour fruit, whereas the consumption of carbonated drinks did not show the same effect. Subjects without NCLs brush teeth more frequently than subjects with NCLs. Type of toothbrush, method of toothbrushing and parafunctional habits did not show any influence on the higher incidence of NCLs. The class of occlusion affects the finding of non- carious lesions (p = 0.0012), while the type of occlusion has no effect on the occurrence of NCLs (p = 0.057). Conclusion: The prevalence of NCLs is rather substantial, as well as the existence of various risk factors for their emergence. Prevention has the most important role in reducing the incidence of these lesions, and remedy is requisite in patients whose oral examination discovers such lesions.
