Prosthodontic Restoration of Vertical Dimension of Occlusion in Severly Worn Dentitions

Using zirconia-based prosthesis in a complete-mouth reconstruction treatment for worn dentition with the altered vertical dimension of occlusion.

This clinical report describes the complete mouth reconstruction of a patient with a worn dentition. Computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing processed porcelain fused-to-zirconia prostheses were used to achieve good esthetics, function, and biomechanics.

Clinical indications for altering vertical dimension of occlusion. Objective vs subjective methods for determining vertical dimension of occlusion.

Cephalometric indicators of the vertical dimension of occlusion.

The aim of this investigation was to establish precise indicators of the vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO) which could be used as objective parameters in prosthodontic treatment providing exact control of the reconstructed vertical dimension of occlusion, early detection of errors and correction of the vertical dimension of occlusion during complete denture manufacturing. A total of 60 late...

Determination of vertical dimension in prosthodontic rehabilitation of a growing patient with severe oligodontia.

CASE REPORT This report describes the oral rehabilitation of a young boy with severe oligodontia of primary dentition and complete anodontia of permanent dentition, treated by complete maxillary and partial mandibular removable dentures. Since the determination of a proper occlusal vertical dimension in paediatric patients is often difficult, treatment was achieved by means of a multidisciplina...
