title: Treatment of the worn dentition. 1.
abstract: This is the first of two articles concerning the practical techniques involved in reconstruction of the worn dentition. The authors describe some of the procedures available and assess the appropriateness of 'conformative' versus 'reorganized' approaches to the occlusion. They continue by describing some practical aspects of reconstructive work. Part 2 will look at other practical techniques.
