Abstract
|
|
|
|
In an extensive oral rehabilitation, determining a proper occlusal vertical dimension is a critical step and the starting point for successful treatment. Since changing the occlusal vertical dimension could be time-consuming, financially challenging, and physically demanding for both clinicians and patients, multi-faceted analysis and careful consideration are essential in the diagnosis and further treatment process. The purpose of this narrative review is to discuss the occlusal vertical dimension and its current issues, and to summarize previous methods of evaluating occlusal vertical dimension to propose clinical guidance for determining a viable occlusal vertical dimension for full-mouth rehabilitation.
