An innovative prostheses design for rehabilitation of severely mutilated dentition: a case report
نویسنده
چکیده
Partial edentulism has multiple implications in relation to function, esthetics and future rehabilitative treatment. This case report illustrates the management of a patient with extreme consequences of partial edentulism. The main clinical findings were unopposed remaining teeth, overeruption of the remaining teeth, loss of vertical dimension of occlusion, and significant disfigurement of the occlusal plane. Following the diagnostic procedure, a well-coordinated prosthodontic treatment involving liaison with other dental disciplines was indicated. The management involved an innovative combination of fixed and removable prostheses in conjunction with crown lengthening surgery and strategic implant placement. Series of provisional prostheses were applied to facilitate the transition to the final treatment.

Occlusal Rehabilitation of Severely Mutilated Dentition
Severe caries, attrition, abrasion, erosions of anterior teeth lead to loss of anterior guidance. This in turn causes attrition of posterior teeth and loss of occlusal vertical dimension. To gain the space for esthetic rehabilitation in these cases is cha llenging task. The required space can be achieved by crown lengthening and increasing the occlusal vertical dimension within physiologic lim...

Reorganization of an occlusion in a mutilated dentition is the most challenging task which is ever faced by prosthodontists. An occlusal rehabilitation, though it is common, is the most complex treatment procedure which is widely practised in treating severely worn out dentitions, developmental anomalies, acquired defects, ill fitting, long span fixed partial dentures and TMJ disorders. Various...
