This Compendium eBook features a continuing education (CE) article that describes a case in which dentoalveolar extrusion of the patient’s maxillary anterior teeth was diagnosed as a secondary condition to tooth erosion resulting from a long-standing gastroesophageal reflux (GERD). A three-phase treatment plan is discussed. A key component of the zirconia-based treatment was the use of an intraoral scanner for digital impressions, which allowed for clear marginal visualization, time efficiency, and a simplified impression process.

FEATURED CONTENT

Simplifying the Impression-Taking Process for High-Quality Results
Jennifer Bell, DDS
While there are many sources of the acid that results in damage to hard tissues, for the purpose of this discussion the author includes gastric acids from voluntary and involuntary causation, namely gastroesophageal reflux (GERD) and bulimia nervosa. In the present case, dentoalveolar extrusion of the patient’s maxillary anterior teeth was diagnosed as a secondary condition to tooth erosion resulting from a long-standing reflux. A three-phase treatment plan included improved management of the patient’s reflux symptoms by working with her primary care physician, orthodontics, and full-coverage restorations. A key component of the zirconia-based treatment was the use of an intraoral scanner for digital impressions, which allowed for clear marginal visualization, time efficiency, and a simplified impression process.
