Abstract

Patient: A 68-year-old women came to our department with the chief complain of oral general malaise. The treatment did general prosthetic treatment and did a test result of volume of saliva test was done in refe-rence more. The symptom was improved after having set a provisional bridge. In the four years after completion of the final prosthetics, and the posttreatment course is excellent conditions without oral general malaise.
Discussion: As for improving occlusion adequately, enough jaw movement is enabled. As for it being possible for appropriate jawmovement, the volume of saliva enlarges to be able to add irritation for salivary gland. Thus, it seems that appropriate jaw movement and enough the volume of saliva by improved unidentified complaint.
Conclusion: The prosthesis which harmonized with jaw movement does not improve satisfaction of the patient and is useful for improvement of oral general malaise. The volume of saliva was taken in as an examination item at the time of a treatment. A index and likelihood of prosthetic treatment were suggestd the volume of saliva test.
