Association of age and gender of patients undergoing class V tooth coloured restoration in maxillary teeth.

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.
