Abstract
The present paper discusses a case of a 75 year-old female patient with severe attrition and decreased bite level. The patient was treated with a treatment denture. The provisional restorations were adjusted continually, taking into considerations easier pronunciation, esthetics, and chewing function. Upon recovery of occlusal vertical dimension and mandibular position the final restorations were placed. Five and half years post-treatment, no significant problem is apparent, but I would like to re-evaluate adequacy of occlusal reconstruction and identify treatment precautions in the maintenance period.
