Abstract

Patients often seek rehabilitative treatment for severely worn dentition. The etiology of noncarious tooth wear due to attrition, abrasion, and erosion is multifactorial. To treat the worn dentition, it is important to identify and eliminate and/or control the factors that contribute to excessive wear. Many situations requiring complete mouth rehabilitation present with the challenge of a lack of restorative space. To establish a correct occlusal plane and space for prostheses, it is necessary to increase vertical dimension. This may require an increase in occlusal vertical dimension. Also clinicians should be able to choose the appropriate restorative materials to achieve excellence in natural esthetics as well as proper biomechanics and durability. This article presents a method for altering occlusal vertical dimension to restore dentitions with limited restorative space due to loss of tooth structure.

치아의 마모를 보이는 환자가 진료실을 찾는 이유는 보통 심미적인 이유, 기능적인 이유, 지각 과민증의 증가 때문이다. 이때 먼저 병인 요소들의 조절이 필요하고, 환자의 나이가 고려되어야 한다. 전반적인 치아 마모를 보이는 환자의 치료를 위하여 때때로 전악을 보철로 수복해야 할 경우가 있고, 이때에는 보철물의 공간 확보를 위한 교합거상이 필요하다. 전악 수복을 할 때 장기적인 좋은 결과를 얻기 위해서는 정확한 진단, 적절한 수직고경 확립, 최적의 수복재료 선정을 바탕으로 지속적인 교합조정 및 구강 위생 관리가 필수적이다. 본 증례에서는 과도한 마모를 보여 심미적인 이유로 병원을 찾아온 환자로, 보철수복 공간을 위하여 교합고경을 증가시켜 중심위를 이용하여 수복한 치험례를 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하고자 한다.
