Patient: A 59-year-old woman presented with poor esthetics because of reverse articulation and masticatory disturbance caused by missing teeth. After increasing the occlusal vertical dimension and occlusal reconstruction using treatment dentures, fixed prostheses with dental implants in the maxilla and mandibular molars improved the patient’s masticatory function. The anterior teeth of the maxilla ware esthetically improved with all-ceramic crowns.
Discussion: The acquisition of occlusal support with the implant prostheses and the improvement of esthetics with all-ceramic crowns of maxillary anterior teeth significantly enhanced the patient’s oral health-related quality of life.
Conclusion: A case with esthetic dissatisfaction and masticatory disturbance was treated with implant and fixed prostheses, resulting in an excellent treatment outcome.
