Abstract
It is of interest to assess the association of age and gender of
patients undergoing class V tooth colored restoration in maxillary
teeth.
Records were collected by reviewing the data of 86,000 patients of
which 1580 patients had undergone class V tooth colored restoration
in
maxillary teeth. Patients were divided into age groups 18-30,
31-40,41-50,71-80 years. The most common age group who had undergone
class V restoration was in the age group 41-50 years (30.8%).
Cervical abrasions were the most common (79%). Most of the patients
underwent direct restoration (87.7%). Direct restoration was found
to be more prevalent in the age group 41-50 years due to cervical
abrasion.
