Abstract

Introduction: enamel, dentin and dental cement surfaces are subjected to a variety of destructive processes. Exposure of dentin can cause sensitivity, cosmetic problems, and exposure of the pulp.Objective: to analyze dental erosion and hypersensitivity in patients aged 27 to 56 who attended the "Neodental" dental office, Ecuador.Methods: an observational, descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out in adult patients from 20 to 56 years of age examined at the "Neodental"dental office, Ecuador, in the period September-December 2022. The universe consisted of 42 patients, of whom, using simple random sampling,according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, a sample of 20 patientswas obtained. The data were obtained from the clinical history of the patients and a survey elaborated for such purposes. The variables used were statistically described by percentage relative frequencies.Results: 40 % of the sample brushes one time a day showing poor oral hygiene, only 20 % brushes three times and only 15 % of the populationthe four times recognized to determine efficient brushing and oral hygiene. 60 % of the sample was unaware of dental erosion, while theremaining 40 % of the sample knew about the pathology. 70 % of the sample consume medicines that contain vitamin C, and the remaining 30 % consume it infrequently or not at all.Conclusions: patients with hypersensitivity and dental erosion aregenerally diagnosed in time when the dental piece still has a good prognosis.
