Summary

This study is aimed to compare CAD/CAM (digitally fabricated) metallic partial denture frameworks to conventionally fabricated metallic partial denture frameworks in mandibular Kennedy class-III arches in terms of abutment health and occlusal analysis

Conditions

  • Occlusion
  • Prosthesis Durability

Interventions

OTHER

CAD/CAM metallic partial denture frameworks

The CAD/CAM workflow starts with scanning of the physical model (master cast) to create a 3D virtual representation. Dental professionals then digitally analyze this virtual model and design the metallic partial denture frameworks using specialized computer software. Once the design is finalized, a wax pattern of the framework is either milled or 3D printed. Then proceeding with this wax pattern to fabricate the final metal partial denture framework, either by conventional casting process, or milling of the metallic framework

OTHER

Conventional metallic partial denture frameworks

The metallic partial denture frameworks have proven to be affordable and convenient treatment option for partially dentate patients for it is rigidity and durability. It can be used in thin sections and provide high strength and stiffness. However, metallic partial denture frameworks also come with several drawbacks. A significant concern for some patients is the metallic display, which can lead to poor esthetics. Other disadvantages include increased prosthesis weight, a potential metallic taste, and a tendency for plaque accumulation. Additionally, they can induce stresses on the abutment teeth
