Increasing Occlusal Vertical Dimension: How to be Predictable

The restoration of the worn dentition often requires an increase to the existing occlusal vertical dimension. This presentation will cover the pertinent literature relative to changes in OVD and develop a treatment protocol based on 6 specific diagnostic criteria.

At the conclusion of this session, attendees should be able to:

  • Describe and apply an appropriate occlusal philosophy for wear patients.
  • Explain the single factor that controls the increase in OVD.
  • Illustrate the process used to replicate intraorally what was done on the articulator.
