The application of computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) in the fabrication of the overdenture framework simplifies the laboratory process of the implant prostheses. The Nobel Procera CAD/CAM System was utilised to produce a lightweight titanium overdenture bar with locator attachments. It is proposed that the digital workflow of CAD/CAM milled implant overdenture bar allows us to avoid numerous technical steps and possibility of casting errors involved in the conventional casting of such bars. © 2017 Chui Ling Goo and Keson Beng Choon Tan. | Source Title: | Case Reports in Dentistry | URI: | https://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/183573 | ISSN: | 2090-6447 | DOI: | 10.1155/2017/9373818 | Rights: | Attribution 4.0 International |
