Patient: The patient was a 57-year-old female who visited the clinic with a chief complaint that she could not chew foods with her back teeth. There was no occlusal support in the molars, and the maxillary anterior teeth were pushed up by the mandibular anterior teeth when the mouth was closed.
Discussion: It was suggested that occlusal reconstruction could improve the masticatory function and esthetic disorder.
Conclusion: The information obtained from the treatment denture was transferred to the final prosthetic device to ensure a good long-term prognosis. The use of magnetic attachments resulted in a high degree of patient satisfaction.
