Abstract
ALBERTINI, Germán; BECHELLI, Diego and CAPUSOTTO, Anibal. TAS: Temporary Adhesive Systematization. Predictable aesthetic-occlusal integration in conservative rehabilitation. Case report and bibliographic review. Rev. Asoc. Odontol. Argent. [online]. 2021, vol.109, n.2, pp.107-118. Epub Aug 20, 2021. ISSN 2683-7226. http://dx.doi.org/10.52979/raoa.1132.
Aims:
To carry out a literature review on minimally-invasive rehabilitation methods and to present a clinical case on a new procedure called Temporary Adhesive Systemization (TAS), intended for patients that show a considerable loss of dental substance, characterized by a predictable therapeutic approach to transfer the rehabilitation diagnosis wax-up through 3 well defined steps and with specific objectives to the patient´s dentition.
Clinical case:
A young adult male patient with severe wear due to bruxism is temporarily rehabilitated with composite resins (TAS) to return the lost anatomy in a conservative way, following a predictable therapeutic approach protocol called EGOP (aesthetically guided and occlusally protected). This procedure, which is often considered transitional prior to final restorations, allows us to evaluate aesthetics, occlusion, improve communication between the working team and to be able to gradually change for ceramic restorations. In patients that need full rehabilitation due to severe dental erosion, TAS is a predictable procedure that helps the dentist to re-establish the loss of aesthetical and occlusal patterns, without the need of preparing the teeth for the classic provisional restorations.
