Abstract: Worn dentition is a quite common problem for human beings. It is more obvious accompanied with population aging. Since worn dentition significantly impairs the healthy coordination of the structure and the function of stomatognathic system, this paper seeks to review the influence of worn dentition on the occlusion, masticatory muscle, temporomandibular joint, mandibular movement, and facial contour, and the strategy of occlusal reconstruction for worn dentition.

Key words: Worn dentition, Temporomandibular joint , Stomatognathic system
