Occlusion remains a cornerstone in the planning and execution of restorative and prosthetic dental treatments. In cases of complete and partial edentulism, establishing a functional, comfortable, and stable occlusion requires detailed analysis of the patient’s neuromuscular coordination, condylar position, and vertical dimension. This case report presents the occlusion-guided rehabilitation of a patient with a completely edentulous maxilla and a partially edentulous mandible retaining only three premolars. Treatment was completed at Giorgi Martiashvili Dental Clinic, emphasizing a gnathological and prosthodontic approach rooted in centric relation, balanced articulation, and restoration of vertical dimension. Pre- and post-treatment images document the esthetic and functional transformation.
