Manufacturing of an immediate removable partial denture with an intraoral scanner and CAD-CAM technology: a case report
2018
Background
Incisor loss constitutes a strong aesthetic and psychologic traumatism for the patient and it remains a challenging situation for the dental practitioner because of the necessity to rapidly replace the lacking tooth. Various therapeutic procedures have been proposed to replace the incisor concerned, for example by using a removable partial denture. However, the manufacturing of such a denture with classical procedures is often subject to processing errors and inaccuracies. The computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) technology could represent a good alternative, but it is currently difficult because of the lack of dental softwares able to design easily immediate removable partial dentures.
