English The present report describes a technique for a digital cast-free clinical workflow for the fabrication of a combined tooth-implant-supported removable partial denture. This technique comprises digital intraoral scanning, computer-aided design, and subtractive computer-aided manufacturing for the denture base, denture teeth, and crowns and additive computer-aided manufacturing for the denture framework (CAD-CAM).
