Abstract

The shell technique has been described for fabricating direct interim restorations by using conventional and computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD-CAM) methods. However, the positioning of the shell over the tooth preparations can be challenging. In the present manuscript, the clinical and laboratory steps for manufacturing a 2-piece magnet-retained shell for direct interim restoration fabrication are described. The 2-piece shell was produced by combining milling and additive manufacturing procedures. The described technique aims to simplify the correct positioning of the shell and facilitate direct interim restoration fabrication.
