“…According to Carlsson, increase in vertical dimension within physiologic limits will not have hazardous effects on the masticatory apparatus of the patient [3] . Also the transitional prosthesis that was fabricated on the proposed vertical dimension allowed validation of VDO and functional occlusion prior to initiation of definitive CPD [4] . This trial phase of wearing transitional RPD allows neuromuscular adjustment to a change in VDO and helps to determine patient's comfortability with the increased VDO [5] .…”

The objective of full mouth rehabilitation is to restore teeth in physiological and functional harmony. Comprehensive treatment planning of multiple missing teeth is challenging, especially in cases of reduced vertical dimension (VD) of occlusion. This case report describes the sequential methodical interdisciplinary approach employed to treat multiple missing teeth with a loss of VD. An interim prosthesis was delivered to newly established restorative vertical dimension. After the validation of new VD, reconstruction was performed with fixed prosthesis in maxillary arch and cast partial denture in mandibular arch. With proper diagnosis and treatment planning dentist can provide functional harmony and esthetic comfort to the patient, thereby improving patient's quality of life.

“…Surgical repositioning of soft tissue helped gain better aesthetic outcomes. Also the transitional prosthesis that was fabricated on the proposed vertical dimension provided a room for neuromuscular adjustment thereby allowing validation of VDO and functional occlusion prior to initiation of definitive treatment [9] . Patient was kept on continuous follow-up and reported no problems thereafter.…”

Severely worn teeth can affect the aesthetics and functions adversely. Rehabilitation in such cases not only restores functional and physiological harmony but also provides psychological contentment to the patient. Wearing of teeth is very common phenomenon and can occur due to mechanical or biochemical reasons. This case report describes treatment protocol for a 62-year-old female with severely worn-out dentition, partial edentulism and lost anterior guidance. A fixed permanent restoration of the occlusion was planned with appropriate planning and analysis. Pankey Mann Schuyler philosophy was used to rehabilitate occlusion. First anterior rehabilitation was carried out, later the posterior plane analysis and rehabilitation was done. This report presents how worn-out dentition can be rehabilitated to improve aesthetics and function leading to improved quality of life.

“…The prosthetic rehabilitation of a patient with a functionally compromised dentition frequently involves a multidisciplinary approach that requires critical treatment planning for determining the occlusal vertical dimension (VD) and interocclusal rest space. 1 As the process of wearing of teeth occurs, there is a continuous adaptive mechanism taking place in the alveolar bone to compensate for the lost VDO.…”

Management of the lost tooth structure by restoring the dental occlusion and aesthetics, is a challenging task for a dental clinician in full mouth rehabilitation cases. With the advent of new techniques and tooth-colored materials, it has become easy to meet demands of the patient. Full mouth rehabilitation involves restoring of dental occlusion, dental balance, and functionality with dental esthetics. This can be achieved through accurate clinical and radiographic examination, along with a diagnostic wax-up. Determining OVD is crucial in these cases. This paper describes the full-mouth rehabilitation of a 55-year-old patient with a severely mutilated dentition.
