Patient: The patient was a 60-year-old female, with complaints of masticator y dysfunction and esthetic dissatisfaction. One of the causes was considered to be infraocclusion in the molar area of the lower partial denture. Since irregularity in the occlusal plane and deep bite were also observed, bite raising was carried out to solve these problems. Discussion: The occlusal plane and the vertical dimension were restored using provisional restoration and a removable partial denture which had already been used. The required increase in vertical dimension was divided into several steps of bite-raising treatments. Because of these steps, the patient was satisfied with mastication and esthetics without jaw muscle pain or discomfort in the higher vertical dimension. Conclusion: It is suggested that dividing the bite-raising treatment into several steps reduced the occurrence of discomfort symptoms in the masticatory system induced by the increase of occlusal vertical dimension.
