This case report describes the importance of every step of the conventional and improvised methods in treating tooth wear patients. Stages from the initial work-up of tooth wear assessment, substantial surgical crown lengthening, the controlled method of increasing vertical dimension, the precise method of crown preparations, advanced impression techniques till the cementation procedure of final restorations. The whole treatment was in a reorganized approach such that the new inter-cuspal position (ICP) coincided with the retruded axial position (RAP). When restoring worn dentition, clinician should always have a proper planning, decent implementation for each stages thus guarantee excellent performances. However maintenance and recall visits are the main keys to long term success.","PeriodicalId":10525,"journal":{"name":"Compendium of Oral Science","volume":"87 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73514398","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hyperglycaemia, the hallmark of diabetes mellitus, causes detrimental complications such as nephropathy, neuropathy, retinopathy, and cardiovascular disease in both Type 1 and 2 diabetic patients. Inflammaging is recently linked with the development of diabetic complications. Local cellular senescence and its senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) are the main contributors to inflammaging which can be triggered and accelerated by high glucose level. Regarding the oral cavity, hyperglycaemia, provokes the severity of inflammation and destruction in the tooth supporting structures (periodontium) and increases the susceptibility to periodontitis and eventually tooth loss. This paper provides insights into the impact of hyperglycaemia in causing cellular senescence of teeth supporting tissues and escalating periodontal tissue deterioration.","PeriodicalId":10525,"journal":{"name":"Compendium of Oral Science","volume":"168 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91355905","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
