Abstract

Background: Rehabilitation of Kennedy Class I edentulous involves a variety of treatment alternatives such as overdenture, metal frame removable partial denture, RPD with precision attachment and implants. The combination of RPD and fixed dent-ture using precision attachment or semi-precision is one of the best forms of RPD. Case: A 59-year-old male came to the RSGM FKG UI clinic. He wants to have new denture to eat more comfortable and improve his appearance. Management: Anamnesis, extra-oral and intra oral examinations, and panoramic x-ray were performed. After that, bridge was removed, periapical x-ray and definitive treatment was determined using metal frame RPD in upper jaw and RPD with precision attachment in lower jaw. Conclusion: Patient feels satisfied and comfortable with his dentures both in upper and lower jaw with precision attachments.

Abstract

Background: Even though porcelain fused to metal (PFM) crown is the golden standard in dentistry, it still has a major disad-vantage, such as unaesthetic metallic seen. Resolving those type of problems, an all-ceramic restoration was chosen to improve aesthetic outcome especially in the anterior regions of the mouth. Objective: This article reports the replacement of old PFM crowns in central incisors with poor design with lithium disilicate crowns. Case: A 25-years-old female came to Prosthodontic Clinic RSKGM Universitas Indonesia with complaints of chipping PFM crowns in central incisors with poor shape and colour. Conclusion: Patient’s aesthetic expectations were successfully met through selection of lithium disilicate crowns.

Abstract

In the last few decades, digital dentistry based on computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) has been increasingly discussed. The use of CAD/CAM for the manufacture of fixed dentures shows a high success rate. Currently, CAD/CAM for the manufacture of removable partial dentures (RPD) has also been used in several studies. Several studies have been conducted to determine the level of accuracy and suitability of the manufacture of RPD made conventionally and CAD/ CAM systems, but there are still differences in results. Therefore, in this literature review, it will be discussed the comparison of the accuracy and suitability of conventionally made RPD and CAD/CAM systems.
