86 teeth from 14 patients with NCCL (Non-carious cervicallesions) were assessed by: depth of NCCL, clinical tests (evaporative stimulus, to detect pain levels of dentin hypersensitivity (DH), cold the

Eligibility
Age
18 Years to No maximum
Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Participants included in this study, should be at least 18 years old, in good general and oral health and were required to have NCCL (Non-carious cervical lesions).
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Teeth with presence of dental caries and restorations or fractures were excluded. Participants who underwent recent periodontal surgery or desensitizing treatment in the last three months and those with dental prostheses and orthodontics apparatus, teeth with or under endodontic treatment. In addition, pregnant and lactating women, individuals with bruxism or any systemic/psychological diseases, anti-inflammatory or analgesic drug users, smokers or patients undergoing tooth-whitening procedures were also excluded.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| NCCL (Non-carious cervical lesions) depth does not influence dental pain response to evaporative stimulus, cold thermal test, vertical and horizontal percussion tests. The tests will be performed according to the depth of the NCCL, clinical tests (evaporative stimulation to detect dentinal hypersensitivity (HD) pain levels, cold thermal testing to classify pulp health, percussive stimuli to assess periradicular tissues. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| NCCL (Non-carious cervical lesion) depth does not influence dentin remaining thickness (RDT) by cone beam computed tomography. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) will be used to assess the remaining dentin thickness (RDT). | — |
