Case Study: Full mouth rehabilitation with bite correction
The patient had severely worn out and crowded teeth leading to faster fracture and wear of the teeth leading to a deep bite and decreased chewing efficiency.
Dentist:
Dr Shravan Chawla
Treatment undertaken:
Aligner therapy was carried out first to reduce crowding. Following that, the teeth were prepared for new crowns. We first delivered digitally designed high-quality individual temporary crowns for the entire mouth which the patient tested for comfort and chewing efficiency. After testing the new bite for a few weeks, once the patient was comfortable and settled, we changed them to ceramic in a planned phased manner to ensure the identical bite was replicated and delivered. The patient was given a soft night guard to prevent grinding in the future and to protect his new bite.
