Abstract

<p>Patient: The patient was a 62-year-old male who complained of an esthetic problem due to tooth attrition. Sleep bruxism was suspected as the etiology of attrition, which was confirmed by his spouse and his masticatory muscle pain.</p><p>Discussion: The esthetic problem was solved by full-mouth rehabilitation combined with increasing the occlusal vertical dimension. During the follow-up period, the patient wore a night guard when he slept, and so did not experience fracture of the prosthesis.</p><p>Conclusion: Full-mouth rehabilitation combined with increasing the occlusal vertical dimension seems effective for esthetic problems caused by tooth attrition.</p>
