ABSTRACT

The occlusal stabilization is the principal objective in the complete rehabilitation treatment, caused by generalized attrition or decay. Although in some patients the occlusal vertical dimension (OVD) needs variations, and this we can see just when the clinical aspect is seriously damaged and then modifications are decided. In the other hand when the damage is not severe and we have to make prosthetic restaurations anyway we don’t know if are needed OVD modifications only or an alternative procedure, such as the coronary enlargement before to prosthetic rehabilitation. It is due that we don’t follow a correct diagnosis guide, which don’t show it if is needed or don’t realize OVD modifications. Because in the present study we will review a cephalometric study from a patient that represent a complementary and test key of the clinical and model study review. The three anterior elements help to have a real situation of the patient problem and it’s very important for decision making. In this article only we will review by step the cephalometric analysis based on Rickett’s determinations and others, in a patient with diagnosed dental attrition.
