Anterior teeth restoration by prefabricated post with crowns and temporary removable partial dentures in patient who loss of vertical dimension of occlusion

Anterior dental crowns, temporary removable partial denture, loss of vertical dimension of occlusionAbstract
Patients who have lost many posterior teeth in both the upper and lower jaws, often appeared a posterior edentulous ridge classified as Kennedy Classification Class I, As a result, they rely on their anterior teeth or premolars for chewing, leading to excessive wear on these teeth and a loss of vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO). Restoring many anterior teeth using prefabricated post and core systems in combination with dental crowns and temporary removable partial dentures in patients with lost VDO requires careful consideration. The dentist must establish the correct vertical dimension to prevent facial and jaw injuries. A commonly used clinical approach involves testing wax occlusion rims in the patient’s mouth and having them pronounce the sounds “S” or “Z” to assess the closest speaking space, which serves as a reference for anterior crown restorations. This step is followed by posterior tooth replacement using removable partial dentures. This case report presents the restoration of teeth 11 12 and 21 using prefabricated post and core systems combined with dental crowns in a patient with vertical dimension loss. Additionally, temporary removable partial dentures were provided for both the upper and lower arches to improve function and aesthetics.
