Digitally fabricated dentures allow clinicians to provide new prostheses for edentulous patients in an efficient manner. One approach uses a replication technique where a prosthesis in need of minor alterations is used as a basis for the definitive prosthesis. Compared with conventional duplication techniques, this method allows for the predictable fabrication of accurate dentures in less time and with increased quality. In this clinical report, interim treatment dentures were scanned and 3D printed to make a replication denture for fabrication of a digital prosthesis with the replication technique.
