     Since the posteriors are present and in occlusion i dont think bite raising is required and what vertical dimension is lost should be restored by the crowns placed on the anteriors

    Do correct me if this idea sounds inappropriate or if i have not been able to gauge the need of raising the bite

    In my view, the bite has to be raised because the vertical dimension might have been reduced due to gradual attrition..and moreover if we try to give crowns in the anteriors without raising the bite, it will cause an open posterior bite.

    The OPG also shows the lower right 6 requiring retreatment before giving a crown. If this tooth is not treated and goes for extraction later, maximum masticatory load will come on the implant which is not advisable.

    there is hardly any space for crowns in the lower anteriors. Bite raising will be required. If I put crowns without bite raising the crowns on the lower anteriors will come out.
