Department of Prosthetic Dentistry, Medical University of Lublin.

A female patient, age 71, came to The Department of Prosthetic Dentistry University School of Medicine in Lublin with pain dysfunction syndrome after treatment by extensive prosthesis of upper and lower dental arches. After examination many abnormalities of prosthetic restorations were ascertained. After 21 months of repositioning occlusal splint treatment the symptoms of pain dysfunction were gone, which permitted final prosthetic restoration. This case proves that using repositioning occlusal splint should be the first choice procedure in the treatment of iatrogenic pain after prosthetic treatment.
