There are many reasons for the computer-aided fabrication of dental restorations. However, when it comes to fabricating full dentures which differ from the ordinary due to their individuality and natural beauty, then conventional fabrication techniques often remain superior to this day. They offer users greater flexibility and enable them to apply their own creativity as well as dental technical skills in a more targeted manner. This results in restorations that even help patients with the highest esthetic demands to achieve a better quality of life.

Such a restoration was to be fabricated as part of the 13th International CANDULOR KunstZahnWerk Competition 2023, hosted by Candulor: the challenge was to fabricate a mucosa-supported maxillary and mandibular full denture based on a detailed model analysis. A choice could be made between a tooth-to-tooth or a tooth-to-two-tooth setup for the dynamic occlusion concept which was to be applied. Detailed information on the initial situation was provided (summarized in the following section Case Description), as well as the matching maxillary and mandibular plaster models, the physiognomic bite key and the denture teeth: PhysioSelect TCR (maxilla) / shape 674, shade A3, PhysioSelect TCR (mandible) / shape 64, shade A3 and BonSelect TCR (maxilla and mandible) / shape 04, shade A3 (Fig. 1). In addition, the briefing included an image of the interim denture, recent extraoral images of the patient with the denture in place, and a youth photograph (Figs. 2 to 5). It was also mentioned that the labial lip contact of the maxillary anterior teeth and the buccal cheek contact of the posterior teeth correspond to the bite key. The condylar path inclination was given as 45 degrees on the right and 47 degrees on the left, the relationship: Camper’s plane = occlusal plane.
