Abstract
Patient: A 63-year-old male presented with masticatory dysfunction in his maxillary anterior teeth with malocclusion. He had severe maxillary protrusion and deep overbite. Orthodontic treatment was not advised, and the patient's chief complaint has been improved by prosthetic therapy. After provisional restorations of the maxillary anterior teeth were performed, a fixed partial denture was inserted.
Discussion: It was thought that the main complaint of mandibular position was resolved after the removable occlusal splint and provisional restorations were set.
Conclusion: Prosthetic therapy with setting of the removable occlusal splint and provisional restorations provided a highly satisfactory improvement of maxillary protrusion and deep overbite.
