The successful rehabilitation of a patient with severe vertical overlap resulting from the loss of posterior occlusal support and excessive wear of the mandibular incisors is described. The treatment plan necessitated extraction of the remaining periodontally compromised mandibular teeth and placement of eight implants. Lost occlusal vertical dimension and morphologic facial height were restored using a fixed detachable implant-supported mandibular prosthesis, and the maxillomandibular relationship was transformed from Class II to Class I.
本文描述了一名因后牙咬合支持丧失和下颌切牙过度磨损导致严重垂直重叠的患者的成功康复案例。治疗方案需要拔除剩余牙周状况不佳的下颌牙齿，并植入八颗种植体。使用固定可摘式种植体支持的下颌假体恢复了丧失的咬合垂直距离和面部形态高度，并且将上下颌关系从二类转变为一类。
