Abstract :

Severe tooth wear and partial edentulism often result in loss of vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO), impaired mastication, aesthetic compromise, and temporomandibular joint complications. This case report describes the full-mouth rehabilitation of a 55-year-old male patient with generalized severe attrition and root stumps in relation to tooth 16, managed using the Pankey–Mann–Schuyler (PMS) technique. This systematic and sequential approach, integrating digital workflows with the PMS philosophy, resulted in restoration of function, aesthetics, and patient comfort, highlighting the effectiveness of phased full-mouth rehabilitation in cases of severe attrition and partial edentulism.
