If there has been a lot of destruction of tooth structure than you may need to use posts and cores to provide stability to the crowns.
To increase the bite you may need to place crowns on all teeth. First place temporary crowns for at least six weeks and see if the patient is comfortable. Then convert them into permanent crowns.
If there has been a lot of attrition it would be preferable to perform endodontic treatment on all teeth which need to be crowned.
The case will need to be planned on a hanau articulator.
Hope this helps. If you are able to post images and/ or radiographs you may get a more refined response.

Dr. Veerendra Darakh

Cant we simply give a complete overdenture considering that the patient is 55 yrs old? This option helps us save on all the 3 parameters mentioned above and the vertical height can also be restored.

From the initial description overdenture does not seem to be a feasible option. Proper case selection and counselling is a must.
