ABSTRACT
Changes in tooth structure, missing teeth and decreased vertical dimension of occlusion severely deteriorate the stomatognathic system. This case report describes the treatment of a patient with loss of vertical dimension due to severe wear of maxillary and mandibular teeth. An occlusal splint was used to create an optimum maxillomandibular relationship and to provide restorative space prior to restoration of the remaining teeth. The restoration was accomplished with a hybrid composite material. This treatment has been a less-expensive alternative to full-mouth, fixed porcelain/metal-porcelain restoration while conserving the remaining tooth tissue.
