Introduction: Complete edentulousness is a form of disability that urgently needs prosthetic rehabilitation and occurs very often in the elderly population. It is associated with behavioral, speech, and appearance disorders. The replacement we make it called a complete denture and replaces the missing teeth and tissues. Nowadays, new digital technologies have appeared that make it possible to make total dentures using a computer. This reduces the number of patient visits and lengthy laboratory procedures. Purpose: The purpose of the thesis is to describe and explain modern technologies used in the manufacture of total dentures. We will focus on additive technologies. Methods: The theoretical part of the diploma work is based on the descriptive method. Professional literature (online articles and magazines) is reviewed. The practical part is carried out in the laboratory under the supervision of a mentor. In a special program, a total prosthesis is formed, which is then printed from a light-sensitive polymer material with the help of a 3D printer. Results: In the results, we present the process of making a complete denture. The entire prosthesis was designed on a computer in the CAD 3 shape program and then made it of photo-stressed polymer with SLA. In the diploma work is presented the entire process of making products, supported by pictorial material. Discussion and conclusion: The inclusion of CAD / CAM technology in the design and shaping of total dentures is the future. It helps to simplify laboratory work and reduce the number of patient visits in the dental practice. The process of classic denture prosthesis manufacturing has not changed for almost 100 years, and currently studies of the use of CAD / CAM systems have been carried out, which allows us to use digital technologies in the future. The popularity of digital technologies is growing, complete denture, made by this procedure, has benefits for patients, dentists and laboratory dental tehnicial.
