The emergence of non-carious cervical lesions can be attributed to various etiological factors, one of which is abfraction. This theory suggests that the bending of enamel and dentin in the cervical region of teeth is linked to abfraction. However, there is a lack of sufficient experimental studies confirming the existence of this process and its ...
