Satisfaction and Adaptation After Elevation of Vertical Dimension of Occlusion Using Overlay Denture or Fixed Crowns

10 participantsStarted 2018-07

Plain-language summary

Elevation of the vertical dimension of occlusion has always been a debatable issue specially using removable prosthesis. Fixed restorations have been a more predictable treatment modality in treating patients with tooth surface loss. A more conservative restoration, more retrievable, and cost effective option is proposed. Partial overlay dentures could provide a reversible and more conservative solution either by being used as a final restoration or teeth are provided with ceramic onlays instead of crowns.
