Efficient Digital Workflow to Replace a Missing Denture Tooth for Complete Denture Repair

Debonded denture teeth is a common complication on a fixed or removable dental prosthesis when denture teeth are fabricated separately from the denture base and bonded together. Missing denture teeth can alter a person’s appearance, speech, or ability to eat. Traditionally, denture teeth repair can be a challenge for clinicians or dental laboratory technicians to find the identical tooth mould to meet esthetic and functional demands. This case report describes a digital workflow to scan, design, and mill a well-fitting and esthetic denture tooth to expedite treatment, improve patient satisfaction, and increase troop readiness when traditional methods may not be feasible.
