Abstract

The aim of the study was the description of origin and treatment of paracervical, non-caries defects. Dental plaque is involved in the formation of caries defects, while those of non-caries origin are produced due to the action of mechanical and chemical factors. The treatment consists in wide fluoride prophylaxis (elimination of causes) and in the application of mineralization procedures and restoration of missing dental tissue using modern dental highly-adhesive materials. At the same time occlusion disorders and parafunctions are eliminated.
