Background: Cochlear implants (CIs) are neuroprosthetic devices which restore hearing in severe-to-profound hearing loss through electrical stimulation of the auditory nerve. Current CIs use an externally worn audio processor. A long-term goal in the field has been to develop a device in which all components are contained within a single implant.

The reverse scan technique offers several advantages, such as improvements of accuracy and visibility of critical anatomical structures, minimizing chair time, and providing better patient comfort. This was a case report successfully employing the reverse scan technique. A 72-year-old male patient desired to restore his teeth in both jaws, as he experienced difficulty eating and had never worn dentures.

Although Angle's Class II division 2-associated deep anterior overbite is common in orthodontic treatment, simple prosthodontic treatment with great improvement of deep anterior overbite and worn dentition is infrequently reported. A 51-year-old man with Class II Division 2 malocclusion presented with hypo-divergent facial pattern, reduced lower facial height, and protuberant lips.

Objective: To report and compare the survival of minimally invasive direct and indirect restorations of different materials for restoring the worn dentition.
Material And Methods: A systematic search was conducted in six databases: MEDLINE, Web of Science, Scopus, CENTRAL, VHL, and EMBASE. The eligibility criteria of this systematic review used the PICO framework to address the following research question: "In dentate patients with a worn dentition (P), does rehabilitating their lost tooth structure with indirect restorations (I) or direct (C) effect the survival and success of treatment (O)?".

Article Synopsis
- The article discusses a clinical case involving a 44-year-old woman suffering from erosive tooth wear due to bulimia and bruxism, focusing on restoring her vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO) using minimally invasive methods.
- After a period of therapy with a Michigan splint, the patient required full mouth prosthetic rehabilitation, leading to the decision to slightly increase her VDO by 1 mm.
- The treatment included creating thin lithium disilicate ceramic restorations for her teeth, demonstrating that effective and aesthetic restoration can be achieved with minimal invasiveness.
