How do you locate cemento enamel junction in cervical abrasion?

To locate the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ) in cases of cervical abrasion, visually inspect the tooth for the transition line between the enamel and cementum, which is typically found at the gingival margin. You can use a periodontal probe to gently explore the area, as the CEJ is often slightly rougher than the surrounding enamel. Additionally, applying a disclosing solution can help highlight the junction by staining the exposed cementum differently from the enamel. Accurate identification is crucial for proper diagnosis and treatment of cervical abrasions.
