Management of an edentulous patient with temporomandibular disorders by using CAD-CAM prostheses: A clinical report.

This clinical report describes the application of computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) complete dentures (CDs) in 4 visits and a 2-year follow-up period for a patient with temporomandibular disorders (TMDs), severe occlusal disturbances, and parafunctional habits. The use of a Gothic arch tracing for recording the maxillomandibular relationship and verifying muscular function was particularly helpful in such a symptomatic patient. A trial period was used to determine patient acceptance and adaptation to the new CDs.
