Abstract

The report describes a 27-year-old female patient with amelogenesis imperfecta (AI) accompanied by nocturnal bruxism, who was treated with a combination of occlusal splint and full-mouth fixed prosthetic rehabilitation through follow-ups within 2 years. Soft splint protection, regular follow-up, and monitoring of carries are guaranteed to maintain a long-term curative effect.
