The application of computer-aided design/computer-assisted manufacturing (CAD/CAM)
technology to fabricate a retrofit ceramic surveyed crown to an existing partial removable
dental prosthesis (PRDP) is described. The fabrication of a surveyed crown by using
CAD/CAM technology enables precise and easy replication of the shape and contours
as well as the rest seat of the existing abutment tooth, ensuring excellent adaptation
to the existing PRDP framework with minimal adjustment.
