Full Mouth Rehabilitation of the Patient with Severely Worn Dentition: A Case Report
Full Mouth Rehabilitation of the Patient with Severely Worn Dentition
Keywords:
tooth wear, vertical dimension, full mouth rehabilitationAbstract
The main functions of posterior teeth are for mastication and maintaining vertical dimension.
Extractions of posterior teeth will likely lead to the loss of vertical dimension, which will in turn cause severe
wear of anterior teeth. This case report described the treatment of a 72-year-old male, who had losses
of posterior teeth and vertical dimension. The treatment consisted of two stages. First, acrylic removable
partial dentures were used to increase vertical dimension. Second, after compatibility of the new vertical
dimension had been confirmed, interim fixed restoration and permanent reconstruction were initiated
The follow-up check showed that satisfactory clinical results, including improved masticating function
and aesthetics, were achieved by the restoration of vertical dimension
