ABSTRACT
This clinical report details the successful rehabilitation of a 63-year-old male patient with severe tooth wear, a reduced vertical dimension of occlusion, and esthetic concerns. The Hobo twin-stage procedure addressed these issues while improving the patient's oral health and quality of life. After ensuring adequate oral hygiene, the treatment began with scaling and root planning, followed by diagnostic impressions. An occlusal splint was fabricated, followed by a diagnostic wax-up and tooth preparation. Full-arch impressions of prepared teeth were made using the addition of silicon elastomeric impression material, and chairside provisional crowns were fabricated. The working casts were mounted on a semi-adjustable articulator, and the metal copings were tried on before being built up in porcelain. The patient achieved successful outcomes and expressed satisfaction with the treatment. The Hobo twin-stage technique and porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns can be viable approaches for restoring the teeth's form and function while enhancing the patient's oral health and esthetics. However, regular follow-up appointments and good oral hygiene maintenance are essential for the long-term success of the treatment.
