摘要:Background: non-carious cervical lesions are the pathological loss of dental tissue, where bruxism plays an important role as a risk factor that, by transmitting damaging forces, causes the fracture of dental tissues and subsequent aesthetic involvement. Objective: to characterize non-carious cervical lesions in bruxopathic patients. Methods: a descriptive, cross-sectional study was carried out in the patients treated at the dental prosthesis consultation of the Nuevitas municipality, Camagüey province in the period from January to July 2019, the universe was made up of 157 patients diagnosed with bruxism, who presented at least a type of non-carious cervical lesions, the sample was probabilistic by the simple random method, and consisted of 97 patients. Results: of the bruxopathic patients examined with non-carious cervical lesions, the female sex and the age group between 34 and 48 years predominated. The main non-carious cervical lesion in general in patients with bruxism was abfraction and was more frequently associated in patients with grinding bruxism. The dental group of upper premolars were the most affected. Conclusions: during the characterization of non-carious cervical lesions in the patient with bruxism, the female sex predominated and between the third and fourth decade of life, abfraction was the main non-carious cervical lesion, with the highest frequency in grinding bruxism and the premolar dental group the most affected.
