A flipper is an interim removable partial denture used for immediate esthetic restoration and space maintenance for a limited period before definitive treatment. Traditional methods for fabricating flippers are labor-intensive and manual. With the advent of technological advancement in dentistry, fully digitalized fabrication including computer designing and three-dimensional (3D) printing can be used. This study aimed to demonstrate the complete digital workflow for fabricating flippers and compare the features of different digital methods. In a partially edentulous patient, three flippers were fabricated using different digital protocols: individual printing (tooth and base parts) and combination, i.e., one-body printing and gingival layering and one-body printing and gingival coloring. Each flipper was tried into the oral cavity, and the adaptation of flippers was evaluated using the triple-scan technique. This study confirms that fully digital fabrication of a flipper is an effective method compared with traditional methods and shows various digital workflows available in 3D printing. Thus, an appropriate fabrication method must be selected for each situation.

Complete dentures fabricated with the additive or subtractive method have been widely used and proven to be clinically acceptable. However, fabrication of removable partial dentures (RPDs) using computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing is limited by its technique sensitivity as the pink resin, which encases part of metal framework, cannot be fabricated digitally. This article introduces a digital workflow to fabricate an RPD with the subtractive method. A complex structure of the offset metal framework and denture base with teeth sockets was milled with this technique. Artificial teeth were milled with a resin disk according to the computer-aided design data, resulting in the customized occlusal surface. This digital technique can be an alternative to the analog fabrication method as the RPD was fabricated digitally, keeping the original structures and reducing resin shrinkage on the intaglio surface.
