Abstract
The rehabilitation of a patient in the Kennedy class IV situation demands biomechanical balance and aesthetic improvement. Larger defects usually lead to increased movement of the prosthesis, due to the compromised mucosal support and a longer edentulous span of the prosthesis. The article describes the prosthetic management of a patient following partial mandibular resection. The long span of missing teeth and the unavailability of a sufficient number of abutments are challenges for prostheses. This case report describes an inexpensive technique for the fabrication of attachment retained prosthesis over castable bar assembly for rehabilitating the long‑span Kennedy class IV situation.
