Traumatic occlusion is defined as an injury resulting in tissue changes as a result of occlusal forces. Can be classified as primary and secondary occlusal trauma. There are many factors involved in etiology of occlusal trauma in periodontology. In establishing the diagnosis there are clinical and radiographic methods. Treatment can be done by occlusal adjustment, management of parafunctional habits, splinting, occlusal reconstruction, extraction and orthodontic tooth movement. This clinical report describes the patient with traumatic occlusion after placement of a metal ceramic crown. As a result, increased mobility and fremitus were seen. Patient was treated with occlusal adjustment.
