Effect of finishing and polishing techniques on the fit accuracy and dimensions of conventional and CAD‐CAM removable partial denture frameworks
Within the limitations of this study, conventionally processed RPD groups exhibited better overall fit accuracy post-finishing and polishing. Both conventional cast and 3D-printed RPD frameworks showed clinically acceptable fit accuracy. The D-Lyte technique presented less metal loss and smoother surfaces compared to other groups, suggesting it as a viable alternative.
