As dentists, we are occasionally called upon to fabricate a crown restoration on an abutment tooth that either contacts or is clasped by an existing removable partial denture. This can be a difficult situation because even minor errors in the contour of the crown will result in the existing partial failing to seat.

However, there are proven techniques that will improve the accuracy of retrofits and help to ensure that the existing partial seats to place after the new crown is cemented. In this podcast we will present 4 different techniques, 2 analog and 2 digital, that should ease the stress of these restorations for the doctor and the dental lab, resulting in higher accuracy and positive results for all parties.
