Abstract

Although digital technology is commonly used in various forms of dental treatment, its application to fabrication of removable dentures is still associated with limitations or challenges, such as the recording of occlusal vertical dimensions and determination of the occlusal plane. Here, a simple and inexpensive technique for fabrication of removable complete dentures, partly aided by digital technology, is proposed.

Keywords: digital technology; duplicate denture; removable complete denture fabrication.
