Abstract:
Case report of a child demonstrating severely-worn primary dentition with dentinogenesis imperfecta is presented. Overdentures were fabricated in order to preserve clinical crowns, re-establish the clinical dimension of occlusion and provide esthetics. The patient underwent monthly recall visits for a 6-month period, during which most rapid changes concerning the gingival tissues and tooth mobility were expected.
