Abstract
The management of tooth wear has been a subject of increasing interest from both preventive and restorative points of view.
This article describes the full mouth rehabilitation of a 54-year-old bruxer woman with a severely worn dentition and other
dental problems including unsuitable restorations and several missing teeth. The treatment entailed using cast posts and cores,
metal-ceramic restorations, and a removable partial denture. As with the treatment procedure of such cases, equal-intensity
centric occlusal contacts on all teeth and an anterior guidance in harmony with functional jaw movements were especially
taken into account
