Total Rehabilitation of Worn Dentition in a Self-Reported Female Using Pankey-Mann-Schuyler Concept and Methodology- A Case Report
Journal Title: Scholars Academic Journal of Biosciences - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 5
Abstract
Tooth wear has intrigued restorative dentists due to its multifactorial etiology. Loss of tooth structure may occur through non carious processes like abrasion, attrition, erosion and possibly abfraction, acting alone or in combination. Behavioral factors that may contribute to parafunctional habits and/or nocturnal tooth grinding (bruxism) are also important to understand and in order to successfully restore and maintain a healthier dentition. Restorative treatment decisions must be based on the patients’ needs, severity of wear and potential for progression of the wear. This article describes the management of worn dentition in a self reported bruxer who presented with occlusal wear and concomitant non-carious cervical wear. Pankey-Mann-Schuyler philosophy along with functionally generated pathway technique was employed to achieve optimal results.
