Abstract: A healthy, confident smile is the foundation of a healthy, confident life. A replaced tooth is a renewed chance to smile brighter and live fuller. The process of complete dental rehabilitation involves the clinician in developing a roadmap, a structured plan aimed at achieving predictable outcomes. Frequently, the requirement for complete mouth rehabilitation stems from wear patterns that compromise the teeth. In other instances, rehabilitation is necessary to replace all old restorations......

Abstract: The diagnosis and management of the most common cause of non-dental pain in the maxillofacial region, namely temporomandibular disorders (TMD), remains a challenge for clinicians to this day, despite extensive clinical research into the topic. This is because TMD is a broad term comprising of different conditions with complex etiologies, with symptoms that vary in intensity.[1] Numerous treatment modalities have been proposed over the years, with some becoming obsolete while others are gaining in popularity. Nevertheless, it seems that there is no.....
