However, the production process of traditional complete denture is cumbersome, requires frequent patient visits, and relies heavily on the experience of clinicians and technicians. Complete dentures produced with the assistance of digital technology have obvious advantages in reducing the number of medical visits, standardizing and facilitating clinical operations, and storing and copying denture data. This article demonsrates the clinical procedure of a case of complete denture assisted by digital technology, with aim to provide ideas for doctors to rationally use digital technology in the production of complete dentures in clinical decision-making.
