Abstract
Recently, through the development of CAD/CAM technology, it is also being used for fabricating dentures. Compared to conventional methods, when digital dentures are fabricated, the fabrication process is facilitated, and the number of visits to hospitals is reduced and errors are reduced. In this case, the vertical dimension was increased using a CAD program in a patient who needed vertical dimension recovery due to the use of old dentures, and the final denture was fabricated using a monolithic disc through the milling method. The centric relation was recorded using existing dentures, and using the information from the intraoral scan and the existing denture model scan, a trial denture was fabricated and delivered to the patient to evaluate the midline and occlusion. Based on the evaluation of the trial denture, the final denture was fabricated using a milling method and a monolithic disc, and the final denture showed satisfactory results functionally and aesthetically.
