RPD Rx is a digital workspace for designing removable partial denture prescriptions. Create your design, export a professional PDF and send it with your existing laboratory workflow. Design with confidence. Communicate with clarity.
STL Imported
Ready
RPD Rx helps you create clear, professional prescriptions that fit naturally into your existing digital workflow. Design your case, generate a PDF and send it to your laboratory alongside your usual case information.
Build your RPD framework on an interactive design canvas. Add rests, clasps, connectors and other components to clearly communicate your intended design.
Export a clear, structured prescription PDF containing your design, annotations and clinical instructions, ready to accompany your laboratory prescription.
Send your PDF alongside STL files, scans or laboratory forms using your usual workflow, helping your technician understand your design from the outset.
Choose the workflow that fits your case requirements.
Import your IOS .stl file, survey the 3D model, map undercuts, and hit "Send to Designer". Your undercut coordinates transfer automatically into the Design canvas to begin your framework plan.
Bypass 3D model orientation & go straight to the interactive design canvas to draw components, write lab notes, and download your PDF prescription.
"By putting RPD design back at the heart of clinician-technician communication, we uphold the highest standards of RPD treatment planning by eliminating ambiguity."

Answers to some of the questions we’re asked most often.
Yes. Patient information stays on your own device and is not uploaded to our servers. Prescription PDFs are generated in your browser, helping you keep patient data private and supporting GDPR compliance.
Yes. There are no long-term contracts. You can change or cancel your subscription at any time through the Stripe customer portal. You'll continue to have access until the end of your current billing period.
Yes. The prescribing clinician remains responsible for the design of the removable partial denture. RPD Rx helps you clearly record your design decisions and produces a detailed PDF prescription that can be shared with your laboratory.
Yes. You can import STL files into the Survey & Design workspace, establish the path of insertion and identify undercuts. Your PDF prescription can then be sent with your STL files through systems such as 3Shape Communicate, Medit Link, iTero or by email.
Yes. You can bypass they Survey stage and jump straight into the Design workspace. Your PDF prescription can then either be printed and sent with your impressions, or you can email it directly to append to the case. We recommend printing in this case, to keep the PDF and standard lab ticket together.
Yes. Step 1 includes an Immediate Extraction mode, allowing you to mark teeth planned for extraction. These teeth are clearly highlighted on the final prescription so the laboratory knows exactly how to prepare the case.
Yes! RPD Rx Direct and Pro are "per practice" licenses. Multiple team members can access the workspace, and you can easily select or update the individual prescribing clinician's name and GDC number on each prescription before PDF export.
RPD Rx supports cobalt-chromium, titanium, acrylic and flexible removable partial dentures. You can add rests, clasps, connectors, meshwork and other common framework components using the built-in design tools.
Clinical Prescription Architecture
RPD Rx is a diagnostic-driven digital prescription workspace engineered specifically to bridge the communication gap between dental practices and dental laboratories.
By digitising the Davenport design protocol, RPD Rx eliminates chairside friction, prevents ambiguous lab prescriptions, and compiles compliant vector PDF work authorizations instantly inside client-side execution threads.
Developed by Chet Geisel, Senior Lecturer and Programme Director for Dental Technology at Cardiff Metropolitan University.
Combining decades of technical prosthodontic expertise with digital web architecture, RPD Rx enforces strict structural mechanics and biological support rules to elevate clinical treatment planning standards.
