Purpose: Although digital removable partial dentures have been previously described, there have been no reports on how to fabricate them in one piece. This study proposes a new method for fabricating patient-specific digital removable partial dentures using a custom plate.Methods: First, a gypsum model was scanned using a laboratory scanner and a removable partial denture was designed using computer-aided design (CAD) software based on standard tessellation language data. The metal clasp was fabricated from Ti-6Al-4V using a 3D printer. For custom plate fabrication, a resin plate frame was designed using computer-aided design (CAD) software and fabricated using a 3D printer. An artificial tooth and metal clasp were fixed on the base surface of the frame, an auto-polymerizing resin was poured into the frame for the denture base, and the artificial tooth and metal clasp were packed to form a custom plate. The plate was cut using a milling machine. Subsequently, the support attached to the denture was removed and polished for complete fabrication of the denture.Conclusions: Our novel removable partial denture fabrication method is more efficient than the conventional method. The obtained removable partial dentures demonstrated satisfactory accuracy.

This study aimed to evaluate the retentive force of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) and zirconia secondary crowns on ready-made titanium implant abutments (with height, diameter, and taper as 5.5 mm, 4.5 mm, and 6°, respectively) as the primary crown. PEEK, zirconia, and titanium secondary crowns were fabricated using a CAD/CAM system. Insertion and removal tests of secondary crowns on the primary crown were conducted for 2,000 cycles. The initial retentive forces recorded at the 100th cycle for PEEK, zirconia, and titanium were 13.0±7.9, 2.9±2.6, and 27.6±1.7 N, respectively. The retentive forces of PEEK and zirconia showed no significant difference among all cycles. However, the retentive force of the titanium used as a control decreased (20.3±2.8 N) significantly at the 2,000th cycle. Although the retentive force of PEEK was lower than that of titanium, it was within the range that can provide a suitable retentive force of 5 N for removable dental prostheses.
