Abstract
Application of a bite plate is known as one of the treatment methods for temporomandibular arthrosis. However, prolonged attachment is sometimes necessitated. Moreover, patients with multiple tooth defects involving the anterior region may not always consent to the treatment for aesthetic reasons.
We achieved successful results by application of an aesthetically-remodelled bite plate in the treatment of temporomandibular arthrosis in patients with multiple defects of teeth including anterior teeth. This paper presents the treatment method.
