Patient:
A patient visited our hospital for fabrication of functional complete dentures to resolve masticatory disturbance. The case was diagnosed as edentulous jaws with inadequate mandibular position and movement. Therefore, new complete dentures were fabricated and set without reference to the old dentures.
Discussion:
For the diagnosis, clinical treatment and recall, each objective examination was suggested to be useful.
Conclusion:
The patient was satisfied as a result of the improvement of denture base, mandibular position, and mandibular movement after informed consent.
