The control of Occlusal Vertical Dimension (OVD)1 is a demanding task for dentists.
Establishment of proper occlusal vertical dimension in prosthetic treatment is a important task
for clinical procedure.2 No methods are considered to be scientifically accurate in determining
the reduced OVD in patients with low occlusal vertical dimension.3 Various factors need to be
considered simultaneously during occlusal rehabilitation, such as vertical dimension of occlusion,
occlusal contact pattern, centric relation, esthetics and phonetics. Different philosophies
have been documented for occlusal rehabilitation and the choice of treatment plan depends
on the skills and experience of the dentist.4 The actual basal bone height of the reconstructed
maxillary and mandible is relevant to achieve normal OVD for the prosthesis fabricated.5 This
paper described a case with vertical distance problem in which we combined orthodontics with
implantation to rehabilitate vertical dimension of occlusion.
