Design and fabrication of new removable partial dentures and their accuracy and suitability
Objective:To design and manufacture removable partial dentures with a new configuration,and to evaluate their accuracy and suitability.Method:A structure with abutment tooth preparation was designed in the mesh structure of the bracket.The resin substrate of buccal and tissue surfaces was designed using a layered method.Selective laser melting(SLM),digital light processing(DLP)and CNC cutting techniques were used to produce a pure titanium new configuration removable local denture bracket,base res-in part and crown,respectively,followed by splicing and assembling the new removable partial denture configuration(Test group).The samples in control group was a traditional design removable partial denture bracket made by SLM technology,and the final denture was completed by conventional tooth placement and filling with glue.10 samples were included in each group.The accuracy and suita-bility of the sample were examined,data were statistically analyzed.Results:The accuracy(3D deviation,mm)of the test and control group was 0.153±0.019 and 0.153±0.011(P=0.978),the overall suitability(3D deviation,mm)of the 2 groups was 0.191±0.006 and 0.187±0.007(P=0.218),respectively.Conclusion:The configurtion is simplified and more feassible to design and manufac-ture removable partial denture with proper accuracy and suitability.
