Rehabilitation in such cases not only restores functional and physiological harmony but also provides psychological contentment to the patient. Wearing of teeth is very common phenomenon and can occur due to mechanical or biochemical reasons. This case report describes treatment protocol for a 62-year-old female with severely worn-out dentition, partial edentulism and lost anterior guidance. A fixed permanent restoration of the occlusion was planned with appropriate planning and analysis. Pankey Mann Schuyler philosophy was used to rehabilitate occlusion. First anterior rehabilitation was carried out, later the posterior plane analysis and rehabilitation was done. This report presents how worn-out dentition can be rehabilitated to improve aesthetics and function leading to improved quality of life.
