Complete removable dental prosthesis (CRDPs) fabrication using the CAD/CAM technology had been first reported in the early 90’s, but only recently has this technique gained an exponential popularity. The incorporation of CAD-CAM technology in CRDP fabrication has led to the modification of the conventional clinical protocols. These have considerably reduced the treatment burden to the patient, by effectively reducing the treatment time, number of clinical visits, and also costs. The CAD-CAM techniques for fabricating dentures offer numerous advantages including better retention, mechanical- and surface properties but, most importantly, preserving a digital record. Therefore, whenever possible, CAD-CAM CRDPs should be considered as a first option for the completely edentulous patients especially for frail elders with limited access for dental care.
