Abstract
- A thorough examination and diagnosis are required for full-mouth rehabilitation with increased vertical dimension. However, due to a lack of communication or cooperation, the essential process for full rehabilitation with increased vertical dimension (including face-bow and check bite in centric relation as well as anterior guidance) is problematic for the majority of impaired patients. Nonetheless, because of the high prevalence of caries or periodontal disease, disabled people require full-mouth rehabilitation more frequently than non-disabled patients. The purpose of this case study is to describe a case of full-mouth rehabilitation with increased vertical dimension in a patient with hearing impairment.
