“…Significant improvements in the OHRQoL orofacial appearance and the self-perception in the quality of speech function have been reported where full mouth rehabilitation for tooth wear was provided using direct and indirect composite resin restorations. 11,12 Self-reported improvements in the ability to eat and chew following the application of direct, full-mouth composite resin restorations for the treatment of generalised tooth wear, have also been described in a separate investigation; however, significant improvements in masticatory performance in the short term were not observed in this study. 13…”

Patients with tooth wear are commonly encountered in general dental practice. When indicated, restorative rehabilitation is often accompanied by a request from the patient for an aesthetic, tooth-coloured outcome. This article seeks to provide an evidence-based approach, focussing on the longevity of the materials which can be used for the restorative treatment of tooth wear, as well as their modes of failure and observed performance.

“…27 A separate investigation noted significant improvements in the self-perception in the quality of speech function. 28 In this study, the Dutch Speech Handicap Index was used to evaluate changes following full-mouth occlusal rehabilitation for tooth wear using direct and indirect resin composite, where a mean increase in the vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO) of 2.7 ± 0.73 mm and a mean increase in the length of the maxillary central incisor teeth of 2.6 ± 1.2 mm were provided.…”

Patients with more severe forms of tooth wear may require restorative rehabilitation. The decision to commence treatment must be taken carefully and there are a multitude of factors to consider. Alongside the clinical signs and symptoms typically associated with tooth wear, there is also the need to assess the impact of the condition on the patient's oral health-related quality of life. As part of the discussions relating to the attainment of informed consent for the restoration of the worn dentition, not only is it relevant to appropriately appraise the risks, benefits, costs, reasonable alternatives and likely prognosis of the proposed treatments, but to also elaborate on the expected impact of the intervention on the patient's oral health-related quality of life. The aim of this article is to review the evidence relating to the impact of the quality of life with the management of tooth wear, with the introduction of the concept of an evidence-based approach to decision-making when planning care.

“…In some studies on restorative rehabilitation of generalised tooth wear in patients without (a history of) temporo mandibular dysfunction (TMD), ‘definitive’ restorations were placed without prior testing of the increased VDO 15,16 . No observations of maladaptation or substantial functional problems needing further care were reported, although speech difficulties could be observed in the first weeks 17 . Studies on restorative rehabilitation of localised tooth wear without prior testing of the VDO increase also did not report function‐related problems, except for temporary speech difficulties 18 .…”

Background: Evaluation of a new vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO) in complex restorative treatments is considered a necessary step prior to placement of restorations.Objectives: This randomised controlled trial (RCT) aimed to assess the effects of using an evaluation of a VDO increase before restorative treatment in patients with moderate-to-severe tooth wear, on OHRQoL, freeway space (FWS) and interventions to restorations.Methods: Forty-two patients with tooth wear were included and randomly allocated to either a test phase with a Removable Appliance (RA) or no test phase. Restorative treatment consisted of restoration of all teeth using composite restorations in an increased VDO. OHIP-score, freeway space (FWS) and clinical acceptability of restorations were assessed at baseline and at recall appointments (1 month and 1 year).Intervention to restoration was scored in case of material chipping or when the abutment tooth had increased sensitivity that could be linked to occlusal overloading.ANCOVA analyses, Univariate Cox regression, t-tests and descriptive analyses were performed (p < .05).Results: Clinical follow-up after 1 year was completed for 41 patients. No significant effect of testing the VDO with a RA could be found on the OHIP-score (p = .14).Reduction of FWS in the RA group, compared to the control group, was significantly lower at 1 year (p = .01, 95% CI −1.09 to −0.15). No effect on early interventions to restorations was found (p = .94). Conclusion:This RCT showed that a removable appliance is not indicated to functionally test the increased VDO prior to restorative treatment in patients with tooth wear.
