Absence of Non-Carious Cervical Lesions (NCCLs) in a Chilean Pre-Columbian Sample with Severe Occlusal Tooth Wear
This study evaluates the non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) and the occlusal tooth wear in a pre-Columbian sample (n= 67, adults) from San Pedro de Atacama (North of Chile, 400-1300 BCE). The cervical regions of tooth were observed for loss of enamel and/or dentine in order to identify them as NCC...
