Abstract:
The hard- and soft-tissue replacement materials in the traditional workflow for an implant fixed complete denture are acrylic resin and conventional resin denture teeth supported by a rigid substructure. A novel technique is described combining a modified digital complete denture workflow with analog components and systems, allowing the use of multicolored zirconia and 3D-printed resin. In combination with an appropriate metal substructure, a high-quality prosthesis can be fabricated with reduced effort and cost.
