What do we think about when someone says “The Worn Dentition”???
Please don’t break anything if I restore a tooth.
Treatment Planning is very Important!!!!!

Do you have people who wonder why these things happen?
![Page 8: Functional and Esthetic Restoration of the Worn Dentition](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102903/55c460febb61eb514e8b45d0/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Have you seen excessive wear in young patients?
This is where it starts. And where we can make a difference!!!!
![Page 9: Functional and Esthetic Restoration of the Worn Dentition](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102903/55c460febb61eb514e8b45d0/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Can we prevent people from getting worse?
Would you want to know?
What are the ramifications of not telling people?

Have you ever had a restoration break? I have, more than once!

ARE THESE INCISAL EDGES
WORKING???????
![Page 13: Functional and Esthetic Restoration of the Worn Dentition](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102903/55c460febb61eb514e8b45d0/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

We must be good at asking one question......
We must become an expert at answering this question!!
However..........Why????
![Page 15: Functional and Esthetic Restoration of the Worn Dentition](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102903/55c460febb61eb514e8b45d0/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Complete Treatment Planning is the goal...
‣“90% of cases that fail, fail not during the restorative phase but in the treatment planning phase.
![Page 16: Functional and Esthetic Restoration of the Worn Dentition](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102903/55c460febb61eb514e8b45d0/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
1. Proper esthetics (or form) is derived from proper function. Not the opposite.
2. Not properly following (or incompletely following) function can lead to failed function and failed form.
Consider This....
![Page 17: Functional and Esthetic Restoration of the Worn Dentition](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102903/55c460febb61eb514e8b45d0/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Consider This....
3. If you are restoring teeth due to wear and breakage......... the system they are in is not working!
4. As teeth wear and break down, they are changing position. Often compounding the issue.
![Page 18: Functional and Esthetic Restoration of the Worn Dentition](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102903/55c460febb61eb514e8b45d0/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Occlusal Disease‣most common dental disorder ‣contributing factor to eventual tooth loose ‣ reason for needing extensive restorative dentistry ‣ factor associated with discomfort within masticatory system
structures ‣ factor in instability of orthodontic treatment ‣ reason for tooth sorness/hypersensivity ‣most common missed diagnosis leading to endo ‣most undiagnosed dental disorder
1#From “Functional Occlusion From TMJ to Smile Design”, Pete E. Dawson, DDS
![Page 19: Functional and Esthetic Restoration of the Worn Dentition](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102903/55c460febb61eb514e8b45d0/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Signs of instability
‣ Teeth with wear, mobility or migration
‣ Sore muscles of mastication
‣TM Joint instability

Attrition-Tooth to tooth friction
(Parafunction? Centric Relation/Maximum Intercuspation interference?)
![Page 23: Functional and Esthetic Restoration of the Worn Dentition](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102903/55c460febb61eb514e8b45d0/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Abrasion- Friction between tooth and exogenous agent. (Toothpaste, Pencil, Tobacco)
![Page 24: Functional and Esthetic Restoration of the Worn Dentition](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102903/55c460febb61eb514e8b45d0/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Corrosion-Chemical or electrical Cupping, thinning. (Soda, aspirin powders, fruit mulling, gastric acids, etc.) Anterior vs. Posterior?
![Page 25: Functional and Esthetic Restoration of the Worn Dentition](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102903/55c460febb61eb514e8b45d0/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Abfraction- Concentrated stress transmitted thru occlusal loading forces
Dr. John Grippo coined the term in the 1990’s
Loaded teeth show a loss of enamel 10x greater than unloaded teeth.
Fernandes study shows enamel rods run parallel to the long axis, not perpendicular as thought in the past.

Whatto
consider?
![Page 42: Functional and Esthetic Restoration of the Worn Dentition](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102903/55c460febb61eb514e8b45d0/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Teeth and Periodontal Structures
Position
Esthetics
Functional Arrangement
Current Condition
They all must be respected. What if you ignore one or more of the above?
Restoration Selection
![Page 43: Functional and Esthetic Restoration of the Worn Dentition](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102903/55c460febb61eb514e8b45d0/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
It is or responsibility to determine where the teeth go in space
What material will be used
Into what functional relationship they are placed
What specialists should be involved
It can be an overwhelming burden!!!
![Page 44: Functional and Esthetic Restoration of the Worn Dentition](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102903/55c460febb61eb514e8b45d0/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
“Determination of precisely correct incisal edges is the
second most important decision a dentist must
make regarding occlusion. Centric relation is first.”

Need------------------
Want
We must be cautious of these two important aspects working against each other.

How do we make this Easy and Predictable?????
Checklists!!! And using them consistently.

10 Step 3D Treatment Planning Checklist
Step 1: Choose Condylar Position
(Based on Restorative TMJ-Occlusal Examination)a.) Maximum intercuspationb.) Centric Relationc.) Treatment Position
Step 2: Go Tooth by Tooth
With casts, restorative chart, periodontal probings & photos, and mark hopeless teeth, questionable teeth, and teeth that need to be restored (crowned or onlayed) due to weakness or breakdown.
Step 3: Evaluate Maxillary, Mandibular Occlusal Plane
Use photographs (full face, profile, and smile shots) & mounted casts.
Step 4: Choose Vertical & Horizontal Position of Mandibular Incisal Edge
Step 5: Choose Vertical & Horizontal Position of Maxillary Incisal Edge
Step 6: Choose Vertical Dimension of Occlusion
Step 7: Provide Equal Intensity Stops
Step 8: Eliminate Balancing & Working Interferences
Step 9: Harmonize Anterior Guidance
Step 10: Final Functional-Esthetic Check

How do we identify the “Specialty” from the “General” patient’s?
‣ They will be the ones who:
‣ 1.) Desire an esthetic change.
‣ 2.) Present with occlusal disease (signs of instability).
‣ 3.) Need extensive dentistry
‣ 4.) Or have a combination of the above.

Most problems occur when we try to segment our plans. We loose sight of the big picture.
![Page 66: Functional and Esthetic Restoration of the Worn Dentition](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102903/55c460febb61eb514e8b45d0/html5/thumbnails/66.jpg)
To identify ‘General’ from ‘Specialty’ patients it is incumbent on the Restorative Dentist to do a thorough examination.‣Oral cancer examination ‣Periodontal examination (full probing) ‣Restorative charting ‣TMJ Occlusal Examination ‣Full mouth series of x-rays ‣Potential for additional records (mounted diagnostic casts or imaging?)
![Page 67: Functional and Esthetic Restoration of the Worn Dentition](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102903/55c460febb61eb514e8b45d0/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
We must make a proper diagnosis to identify the weak link in the system.
The Teeth
The Joint
The muscles
The Periodontium
Our fight is against either bacteria, force or both.

The components of the TMJ-Occlusal Examination‣The History (7 questions)
‣Range of Motion Test
‣The Centric Relation Load Test
‣TMJ Doppler Ausculation/JVA
‣Muscle Palpation
‣Evaluation of the Dentition for wear, mobility and migration
‣ Imaging

Goals of TMJ-Occlusal Examination‣Assess “restorability” of joint.
‣Make Diagnosis regarding level of parafunctional activity.
‣Determine if Occlusal Therapy is required for this patient.

What you need...‣A New Patient/Records System in your practice
‣A process to evaluate the TM Joint/occlusion & dental structures
‣A semi-adjustable articulator, that accepts a facebow
‣A quality digital camera
‣A well trained team member dedicated to the ‘records gathering process’

1.) History: Seven Questions‣Have you ever had or been diagnosed with a problem with
either jaw joint?
‣Does your jaw joint click, pop or make noise when you open and close?
‣Do you have pain or tenderness in your jaw joint when you open, close or chew?
‣Has your jaw ever locked open or closed?
‣Do you have frequent headaches? If so, how often?
‣Do you Clench or Grind your teeth, or ever been told that you do?
‣Have you ever had trauma to your chin or jaw?

3. Centric Load Test ‣Key Question:
‣“Is there any sign of tension or tenderness in either joint?”
![Page 74: Functional and Esthetic Restoration of the Worn Dentition](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102903/55c460febb61eb514e8b45d0/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
1. Recline the patient so that your arms are parallel to the floor.
Correct Position Incorrect Position
When a patient is not reclined enough, the operators arms will be too high resulting in a bowed wrist position. This makes it nearly impossible to “turn the doorknob”, and often promotes distalization of the mandible as the operator then pulls back on the mandible.
2. Point the chin of the patient up.
Correct Position Incorrect Position
A chin up position allows easier placement of the hands on the mandible, and easier visualization for the operator. This will also prevent the patient from protruding their mandible.

If the disk is displaced, compression of the retrodiskal tissue will lead to pain or discomfort
Tension and tenderness will result from muscle tension keeping the condyle from completely seating
Don’t start out with the firm pressure first. You will shock the muscles and they will not cooperate.
If you have a reason to wonder, figure it out.

Doppler Auscultation
A healthy joint will be quite on rotation and translation
It is simple, efficient and easy to use
Noise on translation is not a deal killer. Noise during rotation should bring caution and perhaps trigger imaging
if restorations are necessary.
You get to demonstrate and document for the patient

Recognize Instability
Wear beyond normal Tooth movement that is not wanted
Excessive mobility
When a lack of functional harmony exists between the muscles and the teeth........the teeth will lose this battle. Often times the joint will also
show ill effects from this relationship.

Concept of Collateral Damage
“The point that should not be missed is that masticatory system disorders are rarely ever confined to a single structure. There will almost always be collateral effects from disorder in the joints, the teeth, or the muscles. These will be evident as signs or symptoms. Careful observation will usually show that there is a chain of cause-and-effect reactions as one disorder leads to another.”
-Dr. Peter Dawson Text: Functional Occlusion
From TMJ to Smile Design

The joint can be in 3 possible conditions
1. Structurally intact
2. Altered at the lateral pole
3. Altered at both poles
“If the TMJ’s are not stable, the occlusion will not be stable, so it is a risky proposition to undertake occlusal changes without knowing the condition of the TMJ’s.” -

What it is.
Functional Occlusion From TMJ to Smile DesignDr. Peter Dawson
“Centric Relation is the relationship of the mandible to the maxilla when the properly aligned condyle-disk assemblies are in the most superior position against the eminentiae irrespective of vertical dimension or tooth position.
At the most superior position, the condyle disk assemblies are braced medially, thus centric relation is also the most midmost position.
A properly aligned condyle disk assembly in centric relation can resist maximum loading by the elevator muscles with no sign of discomfort.

Centric Relation
It is the stable axial position of the mandible
The only position that will allow an interference free occlusion
It is not about teeth. But don’t lose sight of their influence
It is about allowing muscle comfort and coordination
Allows an anatomic, and physiologic position to begin restoration of teeth
![Page 96: Functional and Esthetic Restoration of the Worn Dentition](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102903/55c460febb61eb514e8b45d0/html5/thumbnails/96.jpg)
In CR the load is on the Medial Pole
In rotation, the force stays centered on the medial pole and in centric relation. When movement transitions into translation, the force transfers to the lateral pole.

“More than any other factor, the neutral zone programs the envelope of
function. The neutral zone is a major determinant of how teeth erupt. And it is
the position of the anterior teeth that
influences the neuromuscular
programming of functional jaw movements.”

“The success or failure of many
occlusal treatments
hinges on the correctness of
the anterior guidance.”

Stability
Anterior Guidance that immediately separates the posterior teeth in a lateral or protrusive movement. And which allows these excursive movements within the envelope
of function. The lingual anatomy must be concave enough for the EOF as well.

“The mandible does have favored pathways of
function. And if teeth interfere with these favored pathways, there will be a price
to pay in deformation or dysfunction. The weakest
link will be the prime focus of the damage.”

Where We Place Incisal Edges Influences Excursive Movements and Envelope of Function!!!!
So how do we decide where to place them????
![Page 151: Functional and Esthetic Restoration of the Worn Dentition](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102903/55c460febb61eb514e8b45d0/html5/thumbnails/151.jpg)
“Determination of precisely correct
incisal edges is the second most
important decision a dentist must make
regarding occlusion. Centric
relation is first.”
![Page 152: Functional and Esthetic Restoration of the Worn Dentition](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102903/55c460febb61eb514e8b45d0/html5/thumbnails/152.jpg)
The dentist will pay great attention to the vertical length of anterior teeth. The horizontal position of the incisal edge is commonly overlooked and left to chance. Yet the horizontal position can alter the perceived length greatly.
![Page 153: Functional and Esthetic Restoration of the Worn Dentition](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022102903/55c460febb61eb514e8b45d0/html5/thumbnails/153.jpg)
We must appreciate the 3-dimensional system in which teeth function. Failure to do so will lead to many esthetic, patient comfort, and functional failures.

Length Review
1. You need to fill your canvas. Most people will have central length of 10 to 11mm
2. Do not alter phonetics (Cross into the dry portion of the lip)
3. Do not alter function4. Width of the tooth will often help to dictate the ideal
length .7 to .8 of length5. 2 to 3 mm of tooth show at rest 6. About 60% in “E” position

Incisal Edge Position (Horizontal)
--Keep the teeth in the neutral zone
--Edge should line up with inner vermillion boarder of lower lip
--it must fit within the patients envelope of function
--the position is estimated during our diagnostics, but patient tested with our temporaries
--this is why the lab needs impressions of your temps

How do I know if I messed up?
--teeth feel too dry, or lip hangs-up upon closure
--the patient has a new speech impediment involving “f” words
--you can keep the temps on
--pt complains their mouth muscles feel tired, “my teeth feel long
--porcelain chipping and debonding problems
--problems saying “s” sounds
--restorations feel like they are hitting first in the arc of closure

Why do we need a facebow? What does it do?
It provides the correct arc of closure associated with the condylar axis of
rotation.
Because a CR record is an open bite record! It still needs to be closed into MI.
Recording the correct axis allows us to open or close the vertical dimension
without a change from CR
That is why unmounted casts or casts on a flap articulator are useless
Ever wonder why some crowns need so much adjustment than others!
