Causes and Management of NCCLs

Non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) can be caused by erosion from acid exposure, abrasion from tooth brushing, or abfraction from repetitive mechanical flexing stresses. Erosion smooths the tooth surface from acid, abrasion wears away enamel from brushing, and abfraction causes wedge-shaped lesions at the cementoenamel junction. Preventing NCCLs involves reducing acid exposure from diet and reflux, using a soft-bristled toothbrush with a gentle brushing technique, and limiting habits that cause repetitive mechanical stresses on teeth.
