A seventeen-year-old girl demonstrating severely worn permanent dentition and multiple retained root stumps with dentinogenesis imperfecta is presented. Overdentures were made to preserve bone height, re-establish the lost vertical dimension of occlusion, to provide acceptable esthetics, and to establish an efficient masticatory system.

D014072 Tooth Abrasion The pathologic wearing away of the tooth substance by brushing, bruxism, clenching, and other mechanical causes. It is differentiated from TOOTH ATTRITION in that this type of wearing away is the result of tooth-to-tooth contact, as in mastication, occurring only on the occlusal, incisal, and proximal surfaces. It differs also from TOOTH EROSION, the progressive loss of the hard substance of a tooth by chemical processes not involving bacterial action.
