The oral rehabilitation of patients affected by PC should be directed to eliminate the possibility of chronic trauma to the oral mucosa. Despite the importance of oral rehabilitation, there are no reports of prosthetic devices for these patients. The edges of the prosthesis and the cusps of the teeth were constructed to be of uniform thickness and rounded to avoid any further trauma to the tissues.
