Abstract:
The aim of the treatment of this case was to restore the form, function and aesthetics of all teeth in a patient with amelogenesis imperfecta within the age limit of the disability insurance (IV). Single-tooth zirconia crowns were selected as the treatment of choice and cemented with a conventional glass ionomer cement. For the maintenance of the oral rehabilitation and the protection of the reconstructions a michigan splint was produced and instructed to be carried over night.
