Abstract

Complex partial edentulous situation rehabilitations demand knowledge, skills, and more importantly decision making from prosthodontists. The difference between a patient receiving a removable prosthesis or a fixed prosthesis depends largely on these factors. A precision retained fixed partial denture is one such treatment option that even specialists rarely indicate for their patients. This article describes the diagnosis, treatment plan, procedure, method, and technique that is associated with precision retained fixed partial dentures. A complex partial edentulous situation was successfully rehabilitated using a combination of both removable and fixed partial dentures.
