Abstract

Tooth Surface Loss (TSL) is defined as a condition in which the wear of the tooth structure is excessive according to age. This pathological loss is commonly related to a combination of factors such as erosion, abrasion, attrition, or parafunction. The Dahl technique is a valid alternative that solves the problems that arise in this type of situation, such as dentoalveolar compensation. This case describes a 63-year-old patient who attended the Dental Hospital of the University of Manchester, referred by his private dentist. At the time of the clinical examination, moderate to severe loss of the palatal and incisal tooth surface located in the anterior sector of the teeth, deep overbite and dental alveolar compensation were found. Direct free-hand restorations were performed from canine to canine. After incisal filling, a posterior open bite of approximately 1 to 1.5 mm was observed. Posterior occlusal contact was completely restored in 3 months.
