Evidence of dentistry dates back to 7000 B.C. and since then has come, indeed a long sophisticated way in treatment management of our dental patients. There have been admirable advances in the field of prosthodontics by the way of techniques and materials; enabling production of artificial teeth that feel, function and appear nothing but natural. The following case report describes the management of maxillary edentulousness with removable complete denture and mandibular attrition and missing teeth with onlays and FPD by the concept of minimally invasive cosmetic dentistry. Computer guided occlusal analysis was used to guide sequential occlusal adjustments to obtain measurable bilateral occlusal contacts simultaneously.
