Abstract

Long-term use of ill-fitting dentures may cause irregular movements of the mandible. In such cases, satisfactory outcomes both in terms of function and esthetics could be achieved by accurate registration of mandibular movement and centric relation when fabricating new dentures. In this case, treatment dentures with flat occlusal tables were used to register centric relation and mandibular movements of a patient with erratic mandibular movements.

많은 무치악 환자들은 부적합한 의치의 장기간 사용으로 인해 불규칙한 하악 운동을 하는 경우가 빈번하다. 총의치 제작 시 기능과 심미성을 만족하기 위해서는 정확한 하악 운동과 중심위를 채득하는 것이 중요하다. 본 증례는 불규칙한 하악 운동으로 중심위 채득이 어려운 환자를 flat occlusal table을 가진 treatment denture를 이용하여 총의치 수복하였기에 보고하는 바이다.
