Abstract:
The Dahl appliance was described nearly 30 years ago. This removable metal bite platform was used to create inter-occlusal space, in a localised part of the mouth, to facilitate the placement of restorations on worn anterior teeth. The Dahl concept is traditionally associated with the management of worn teeth. However, the same principles can be successfully and safely applied to a variety of clinical situations. This has simplified the management of historically complex problems. The advantages are the preservation of tooth tissue and the long-term benefits that brings. This paper reviews the literature related to the Dahl concept and how the concept has developed. There is a discussion regarding possible future applications and research.
