Abstract
The extensive use of computer-aided design and manufacturing(CAD/CAM) techniques for the fabrication of casts partial dentures is largely unexplored. This review article emphasizes the development and investigation of computeraided techniques that may eventually enable the prosthodontist a method to digitally survey and build virtual patterns for removable partial denture (RPD) framework using a new threedimensional(3D) computer-aided design/ computer-assisted manufacturing (CAD/CAM) software package developed specifically for RPD design.
