Full-mouth fixed rehabilitation is one of the greatest challenges in prosthodontics.Apprehensions involved in the reconstruction of debilitated dentitions are heightened by widely divergent views concerning the appropriate procedures for a successful treatment. This clinical report describes the prosthodontic rehabilitation of a patient with severely worn dentition resulting in an end-to-end relationship. Maxillary and mandibular fixed restorations and cast partial denture were constructed for the therapy. Canine-protected occlusion was developed in the definitive restorations to decrease lateral forces on the posterior dentition. Protrusive guidance was developed to distribute the protrusive forces to the maxillary and mandibular incisors. |
