[A case of complete dentures with improvement of mandibular position].
METHODS
A patient visited our hospital for fabrication of functional complete dentures to resolve masticatory disturbance. The case was diagnosed as edentulous jaws with inadequate mandibular position and movement. Therefore, new complete dentures were fabricated and set without reference to the old dentures.


CONCLUSIONS
For the diagnosis, clinical treatment and recall, each objective examination was suggested to be useful.


CONCLUSIONS
The patient was satisfied as a result of the improvement of denture base, mandibular position, and mandibular movement after informed consent.
