Abstract
Background: Patients with severe tooth wear can now benefit from minimally invasive treatment options thanks to fundamental advancements in adhesive technology and material science. The lifespan of the restorations and the maintenance of the original tooth material are crucial in this situation. When associated to conventional restorations with retentive formulation, minimally invasive treatments are recommended for many patients since they result in about 45% reduced tooth material loss.
Objectives: To compare several restorative items (ceramic and experimental CAD/CAM composite) & examine this issue in patients undergoing full-mouth reintegration.
Methodology: The OHIP-20 questionnaire was given to 50 patients (25 men and 25 women) who needed full mouth rehabilitation because of varying levels of tooth wear. They were to complete it both previously (baseline) & thirty days following prosthetic management with ceramic or experimental CAD/CAM composite restorations. The questions were broken down in 5 categories: orofacial discomfort, language restrictions, psychosocial effect, appearance, and oral functions. Differences between the two OHIP surveys for each question and patient were examined independently based on difference values.
Results: There were notable variations (p < 0.001) among the five dimensions. The most beneficial findings were seen in the appearance dimension (p < 0.001). The factor with the lowest positive scores (p < 0.001) was language restrictions. Oral functioning, psychosocial effect, and orofacial discomfort were the other three characteristics that did not differ substantially (p < 0.007)
Conclusion: The outcomes of this study highlight the important developments in restorative dentistry, especially in minimally invasive methods for treating extreme tooth deterioration. In addition to maintaining natural tooth structure, these therapies enhance oral health-related quality of life (QoL) in areas including appearance, oral function, and psychological effect by utilizing contemporary materials like ceramics and experimental CAD/CAM composites
