An indirect technique for fitting a new cast gold crown or fixed partial denture (FPD) to an existing removable partial denture (RPD) is presented. This method uses an acrylic resin coping made on a definitive cast fit directly to the patient's RPD intraorally, with the new FPD subsequently completed on the cast. The patient does not have to relinquish the RPD for laboratory procedures, although an appointment is required to fit the coping intraorally where contact is made with the RPD.
