Some dental patients use the orofacial region to play wind instruments; however, musical performance has not been objectively evaluated following prosthodontic treatment in such patients. The purpose of this report was to describe prosthodontic treatment for a clarinet player using sound analysis. The patient required a removable partial denture for his maxillary anterior teeth. Sound analysis was performed before and after denture adjustment, and the patient completed a questionnaire regarding his perceptions while playing his clarinet. After adjustment, the denture showed better performance, and patient satisfaction increased compared with that before adjustment.
