Abstract
Manual impairment could be part of the clinical presentation of a number of systemic conditions or traumas. Inability to successfully remove a removable partial denture is one of the contraindications of this type of treatment. This report presents a technique for fabrication of a custom device made chairside to assist a manually impaired patient due to osteoarthritis with the removal of a removable mandibular prosthesis. This technique could allow patients with similar conditions to replace their missing teeth with removable partial dentures, in cases where a fixed restoration is not an option.
