RESUMO
Digital replication of an existing cast gold onlay anatomy to a more esthetic material for a new complete denture is challenging. A technique is presented that uses digital technology to fabricate a new maxillary complete denture with monolithic zirconia onlays that duplicate the anatomy of an existing complete denture with cast gold onlays.

The analog technique of making bead lines for a metal superstructure framework for the maxillary implant-supported overdenture is created by scribing shallow grooves on the surface of a definitive gypsum cast. This report describes a digital technique that uses computer-aided design and computer-aided manufacturing technology to make dental bead lines on an intraoral impression without using the gypsum cast.
