Purpose:
To clinically evaluate the 3-year performance of a one-bottle dentin adhesive in the restoration of non-carious cervical lesions (NCCLs) with resin composite.
Materials And Methods:
105 NCCLs were restored with either AElite Flow, Bisco Glaze (both flowable resin-based composites) or Silux (a microfilled resin-based composite), using One-Step dentin adhesive. The cavities were cleaned with pumice and water slurry, the dentin lightly roughened with a fine diamond bur, and the restorations placed according to the manufacturer's instructions. Patients were recalled at 6 months, 1 year, 2 years and 3 years, and restoration integrity and marginal discoloration assessed.
Results:
The overall retention rates were: 6 months, 100%; 1 year, 95%; 2 years, 87%; 3 years, 75%. Marginal discoloration was negligible, and there was no significant difference among the materials, although there was a trend for it to be greater around the Bisco Glaze restorations.

Few clinical manifestations differentiate gastric ulcers from duodenal ulcers. Distinctions in the location, timing, and pain relief are crucial for healthcare providers in differentiating between gastric and duodenal ulcers during clinical assessments.
