Abstract

The treatment options available for esthetic and functional rehabilitation of partially edentulous patients are fixed partial dentures(FPD) and removable partial dentures, where fixed could be conventional FPDs or implant FPDs. In some cases, where fixed partial dentures are not possible, removable partial dentures may be the only choice to the patients. Location of clasps in the esthetic zone of the removable cast partial dentures, is not aesthetically pleasant to the patients. Among many material choices for removable denture fabrications, flexible partial dentures provide superior esthetics especially for those patients who are concerned more about esthetics.
