Full mouth oral rehabilitation of a severely worn dentition based on a fully digital workflow

Abstract

Objective: To demonstrate the use of a complete digital workflow for a full mouth rehabilitation in a severely worn dentition.

Clinical considerations: The present case report successfully rehabilitated a full-mouth case of a severely worn dentition based on the use of digital technologies, making the diagnosis and treatment process faster, accurate and less expensive. A long-lasting esthetic and functional result are showed after 30-months follow up.

Conclusions: An appropriate knowledge on dental erosion and oral rehabilitation, combined with a digital dentistry approach could lead the clinician to deliver a fast, accurate and predictable noninvasive restorative treatment in cases like the one described.

Clinical significance: Bruxism-based severely worn dentition is being found more often in population. In this situation, a detailed diagnosis and tailored treatment are mandatory to obtain a predictable treatment outcome. In this sense, the development of adhesive dentistry, new restorative materials and the incorporation of digital technologies can create a predictable synergy to rehabilitate these types of patients with a modern and less invasive approach.
