A conservative full-mouth ceramic rehabilitation for a severely worn dentition
Abstract:
There is a constantly growing prevalence of tooth wear in dentistry. The present case report describes a rehabilitation through ceramic restorations of a severely worn dentition based on a conservative intervention, adequate restorative material selection, and adhesive bonding strategies. A 36-year-old patient with a mainly esthetic complaint presented with signs of tooth wear caused by erosion and attrition. Preparations were performed guided by the diagnostic planning. The full-mouth rehabilitation, combined with the correction of the vertical dimension of occlusion, was split into quadrants, and lithium disilicate partial restorations were fabricated. The proposed rehabilitation was based on the maximal preservation of the remaining tooth structure and the adequate selection of restorative materials and adhesive bonding strategies.
