Implication

Case report demonstrates a fully digital workflow using 4D virtual modeling for occlusal reconstruction in severe tooth wear, indicating reproducible precision and restored masticatory function.

Key Points

To present a systematic, fully digital occlusal reconstruction workflow designed to optimize clinical precision and reproducibility when treating severe generalized tooth wear.
Integrated multimodal imaging and clinical diagnostic data to generate a four-dimensional (4D) virtual patient model.
Designed, simulated, and validated individualized occlusal relationships and prosthetic configurations digitally across preoperative planning, intraoperative adjustment, and postoperative verification stages.
Successfully corrected severe structural tooth loss and restored the patient's vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO), masticatory performance, and facial esthetics.
Established a fully digitized, end-to-end clinical workflow providing precise intraoperative guidance and verifiable, reproducible treatment outcomes for complex full-mouth rehabilitation.
