These days, Dental Technic has been contributed to make more delicating Dental Prosthesis Restoration for patient and dentist. Diagnostic wax-up and making Temporary Crown are emphasized as an important part of Dental Technic. Choosing suitable Material and working with various new Equipments like Microscope improve accuracy. Repeated practice by setting up an organized system gives better result. Also, Esthetic Prosthesis requires patient's appearance and personality as well as patient' age, sex, and shade so on. Moreover, the problem which occurs by the patient's oral condition ha to be discussed before taking final impression. At a time like this, Scientific-mind and Logical thought Ability should be considered the important issue for more progressive Dental Technic.

Sometimes in clinic, we have found that cast crown construction is necessary to fit the existing partial denture clasp, when the abutment is involved with caries, a failing restoration, periodontal disease, or fracture. This is important not only to protect the abutment tooth from missing, but to restore retention, bracing and support for partial denture. For constructing the cast crown, several methods have been reported by many of previous authors. The number of techniques reported during the past are ideal but have uncertain results However, with more improved and practical technic developed by me, the problem becomes more successful. One method in which does not need the laboratory technecian is the wax pattern has been made in chairside waxing by doctor himself. The other in which requires the laboratory technician is to use special impression method and articulator for laboratory waxing. In one case of the reported here, we have successful results in restoring the abutment with cast crown for original denture clasp.

The patient was a 69-year-old male who had decreased VDO and overbite of the anterior teeth due to severe teeth wear. Complete mouth rehabilitation was planned to restore esthetics and function. Due to the presence of a subgingival finish line, poor fit of the margin of the temporary crown, and insufficient oral hygiene management, gingival overgrowth and bleeding occurred in many teeth, and inaccurate impressions were taken. After dividing each arch and taking partial impressions, a transfer coping was made using pattern resin on each working model die, and after being placed on the abutment teeth, a master cast was made through pick-up impression taking to produce prosthesis. In this case, the final prosthesis produced on the second master cast were fitted in terms of proximal contact, marginal fit, vertical occlusal dimension, facial appearance, esthetics, and occlusion. After complete mouth rehabilitation, the patient was satisfied with function and esthetic appearance.
