Table 1

Laboratory cost in THB (35.63 THB =1 USD as of January 2024) used for printing and milling compared with conventional approach.

Prosthesis	Conventional	Digital
		Case 1 (without existing denture)	Case 2 (with existing denture)
Custom trays	120 (800 for duplicated denture)	2,000 (print)	2,000 (print)
Baseplate and occlusion rim	240
Trial denture		2,000	None
Final prosthesis		(Print)	(Mill)
