Oral rehabilitation following successful TMD treatment with condylar position changes: A case report

Background A 31-year-old woman with crowns, fixed partial prostheses, and dental restorations complained of recurrent pain in the left and right temporomandibular joints during the last 2 years.Clinical presentation The symptoms of temporomandibular disorder (TMD) resolved successfully after a 3-month-long treatment with a repositioning splint. Pre- and post-operative cone-beam computed tomography revealed slight changes in the condylar position after splint use. Minimally invasive oral rehabilitation guided by digital design was performed to maintain the acquired stable position. The status of the restorations was good, and the TMD symptoms did not relapse during the 3-year follow-up.Conclusion This case report demonstrates the importance of a stable adapted condylar position after extensive prosthodontic treatment.
