The sequence of a comprehensive oral rehabilitation is described in a patient with generalized loss of tooth structure, highlighting the importance of restoring stomatognathic system function through a multidisciplinary approach. The patient was a 57-year-old woman diagnosed with occlusal disharmony, generalized attrition due to parafunction, mild dental crowding, defective restorations, carious lesions, and partial mandibular edentulism. Treatment was performed in two phases: initially, an esthetic mini-JIG was used, and occlusion was stabilized by increasing the vertical dimension using stamped composite resins restorations. In the second phase, veneers, vonlays, and implant-supported crowns were placed in the maxilla, along with a removable partial denture in the mandible, followed by delivery of a protective occlusal splint. The combination of analog and digital techniques allowed for the restoration of both function and esthetics.
