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

NCT03579134 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 10

No results posted yet for this study

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.
