BPS (Biofunctional Prosthetic System) is a denture manufacturing system developed by Ivoclar Vivadent, which aims to systematically fabricate dentures without being significantly affected by the dentist’s skill level. A suction-effective denture introduced by Abe enhances retention and stability of denture by creating a negative pressure within the denture base through sealing the complete denture border with movable mucosa, and it is ideal to use BPS when fabricating suction-effective dentures. In this case, suction-effective complete denture was fabricated for an edentulous patient by using BPS, and it allowed us to obtain excellent retention of denture and satisfaction of patient.

Journal of Dental Rehabilitation and Applied Science 2024;40(3):179-188
To enhance the predictability of aesthetic treatment outcomes in aesthetic prosthetic restorations, considerations must include analysis of facial features, the relationship between teeth and lips, proportions of tooth width/length, gingival form, and more.Traditional diagnostic wax-ups have limitations in considering the patient’s facial features and are unable to facilitate rapid formmodifications. With recent advancements in digital technology, it is now possible to digitize the patient’s facial features in three dimensions, enabling the design of restorations that harmonize with facial features. These digital workflows not only improve efficiency but also provide patients with faster visualization of treatment outcomes, thereby enhancing motivation. Therefore, in this case, a treatment plan is devised to utilize digital diagnostic wax-ups considering the patient’s facial features for the finalprosthetic design.

It often happens that a removable partial denture needs to be repaired due to tissue changes in the remaining alveolar ridge, fracture of the denture, or fracture of the abutment tooth. There are several advantages to retrofitting a customized surveyed crown under the existing RPD. Retrofitting a crown to the RPD decreases the economic burden to the patient and avoids the need for several appointments to fabricate a new RPD. It is difficult for artificial teeth used to repair dentures due to fractured natural teeth to have a shape similar to that of natural teeth, and to repair aesthetic artificial teeth, it is necessary to manufacture customized artificial teeth similar to the shape of each patient’s teeth. Recently, CAD/CAM technology has been used to fabricate customized prosthetics on existing RPD to achieve high retention and fitness accuracy, and by manufacturing customized artificial teeth, more aesthetic and harmonious artificial tooth repair is possible. This is a case in which a denture was repaired using a digital method to fabricate a customized prosthesis on an existing partial denture and customized artificial teeth that mirrored the adjacent dentition, saving time and cost, simplifying the process, and achieving aesthetically and functionally satisfactory results.
