A 70-year-old woman presented with a complaint of masticatory pain and disturbance. She had collapse of occlusal support and vertical dimension decrease. This case used provisional restoration for increasing vertical dimension and reconstruction of anterior guidance. After confirming occlusal stability, she was treated with fixed prosthesis and removable partial dentures. This patient was followed for 6 and a half years with no prosthetic complications, because the reconstruction of bilateral occlusal support and anterior guidance were performed. It is important to reconstruct the occlusal support and anterior guidance in cases of prosthetic treatment of occlusal collapse.
