Full mouth rehabilitation in a partially edentulous patient with crossed occlusion and unstable mandibular position using treatment dentures and fixed implant supported prostheses: a case report
Abstract
Full mouth rehabilitation in a partially edentulous patient with crossed occlusion and unstable mandibular position using treatment dentures and fixed implant supported prostheses: a case report Patients who have a crossed occlusion with residual teeth frequently exhibit unstable occlusion due to collapsed vertical dimension and masticatory habits with remaining teeth.In a patient with unstable mandibular movements, establishing a stable mandibular movement is critical for ensuring the long-term stability of restorative treatment.In this case report, existing dentures of the patient with cross-arch unilateral occlusion were converted into treatment dentures with flat occlusion table for the stabilization of mandibular movements.Implants were inserted on the edentulous sites and fixed prostheses and implant-supported fixed prostheses were fabricated based on this position.The clinical outcomes were satisfactory in both functional performance and esthetic appearance (J Korean
