Abstract

Creating a single complete denture against natural dentition can be challenging. To facilitate the clinical procedure and promote balanced occlusion, we developed a digital workflow of a single complete denture using a multi-functional diagnostic denture (DD). The DD was digitally designed and fabricated using a three-dimensional printing process to create a guide for tooth grinding in opposing dentition and a final impression that allows the jaw relationship and dynamic articulation to be recorded by an intraoral scanner. The definitive complete denture was combined with a milled artificial dentition and titanium-plated denture base. Within three clinical visits, this digital workflow provided better efficiency and easy implementation for a single complete denture.
