case_images: These restorations were fabricated according to the diagnostic waxup (Figure 4), for which the Broadrick flag analyzer was used to determine the curve of occlusal plane.

case_images: Finally, the occlusion of restorations was adjusted so that equal-intensity centric contacts were established on all teeth (Figure 6(a)), and anterior guidance discluded all posterior teeth in eccentric jaw movements. The smile view of patient after treatment is shown in Figure 6.
