The survey had 16 questions regarding the prevalence of non-carious cervical lesions in the participants dental practice, the awareness of their clinical signs, etiological mechanisms and treatment options. Results Romanian dentists and dental students felt competent in diagnosing and treating tooth wear and non-carious cervical lesions, although the awareness of their etiology was moderate. For the restoration of non-carious cervical lesions, the material preferred by Romanian dentists and dental students was flowable composite.
