Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 9
Abstract
Full mouth rehabilitation is a complex dental treatment the complexity of which relates to mathematical components of occlusion that involves various angulations and inclinations. One of such component is the occlusal plane. Abnormalities in the occlusal plane develop after the loss of teeth in the form of supra eruption, migration, rotation or malposition. Correction of occlusal plane is compulsory in any form of occlusal rehabilitation. A female patient reported with chief complaint of decreased masticatory performance that developed after extraction of posterior teeth. Clinical examinations revealed a case of full mouth rehabilitation that required a multidisciplinary approach. The complex aspect of the rehabilitation was to correct an existing abnormal occlusal plane, which was successfully achieved using a custom made Broadrick occlusal plane analyzer. The relation of occlusal plane to the amount of tooth preparation has also been discussed.
