Full-mouth rehabilitation using twin-stage technique

2019 
The wear and tear of the occlusal surfaces of teeth keeps on happening throughout life. However, excessive occlusal wear may lead to occlusal disharmony, pulpal trauma, esthetic disfigurement, and impaired function. Tooth wear can be classified as attrition, abrasion, and erosion depending on the cause. Therefore, it is important to identify the factors which contribute to excessive wear and reduce the vertical dimension of occlusion. This case report presents the rehabilitation of complete maxillary and mandibular arch in a 45-year-old male patient with severe attrition. The patient was treated using the Hobo's twin-stage approach with porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns on all maxillary and mandibular teeth.
