Abstract

PATIENT : A 48 year old patient reported with complaint of food lodgement in wearfacets because of severe worn out teeth. Pankeymann- Schuyler philosophy was followed for the rehabilitation as it is a well organized procedure, where anterior guidance is first established followed by restoration of the posterior teeth. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION : The goal of full mouth rehabilitation should be the restoration and maintenance of the health of the entire oral mechanism. It demands rehabilitation within the physiological and functional harmony of the stomatognathic system. Careful evaluation of the etiology, history and factors relative to occlusal vertical dimension are essential to appropriate treatment planning. The complexity in treating full mouth rehabilitation cases is not only because of its long treatment time but also at times the lack of clarity in the treatment objective.
