Abstract

Introduction: Non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) have a multifactorial etiology with three distinct mechanisms involved in their formation: friction, biocorrosion and tension. Objective: Discuss the applicability of bulk-fill resin in LCNCs. Methods: A literature review was carried out in the electronic databases: SciELO, PUBMED, LILACS and VHL, in which 30 articles were obtained between the years 2015-2020, between national and international productions in English and Portuguese. Results and discussion: The restoration of this type of lesion usually fails, mainly due to the lack of a multifactorial treatment of the lesions, in which diet, occlusal overloads and parafunctional habits may be involved. Due to its composition, bulk-fill resins can be incorporated into the cavity in increments of up to 4-5mm, with technology capable of reducing shrinkage stress, which leads to fewer failures in LCNCs and greater durability of this restoration. Conclusion: There is still a need for a greater amount of research on the use of this type of composite in NCCL, demonstrating clinical effectiveness.
