Resumen:
Non-carious Lesions (NCL) are an irreversible loss of dental structure without the
involvement of bacterial action, have a complex and multifactorial etiology and have
as main factors of the process of tooth decay the erosion, stress (abfraction) and
friction (abrasion). They are easily recognized during routine dental care practices, with
high prevalence, which reaches up to 85%. The aim of this study is to present a case
report of rehabilitation of anterior dental elements (13 to 23) that present noncarious
lesions, using porcelain as restorative material. The 34-year-old male patient came to
the dental office complaining about the aesthetic appearance of his smile and the wear
on the anterior teeth, where it began treatment by conducting anamnesis, clinical
examination and case planning. Bisacrylic resin (Protemp 3M) veneers were made
using a silicon mold for the restorative test and, after patient approval, the lithium
disilicate full veneer ceramic veneers were cemented with Z-100 composite resin (3M
ESPE ) heated to 68 ° C, where it was possible to provide occlusal adjustment and
functional and aesthetic rehabilitation of the patient's smile. It was concluded that the
knowledge of the dentist about the characteristics of non-carious lesions, mastery of
the techniques, as well as the properties and limitations at the time of choosing the
restorative material is essential for the clinical protocol to be correctly performed, thus
ensuring longevity of treatment and increased clinical success.
