Excessive occlusal wear can result in pulpal injury, occlusal disharmony, impaired function and aesthetic deformity. Loss of anterior guidance can result from severe wear of anterior teeth, which protects the posterior teeth during excursive movement. The collapse of posterior teeth also results in the loss of normal occlusal plane and the reduction of the vertical dimension. Many philosophies used in full mouth have been described for rehabilitation of a patient with severe tooth wear, resulting in reduced vertical dimension of occlusion.
