The indications for a unilateral partial denture would appear to be when there is a single posterior tooth missing, bound on both sides by usable abutments. Another consideration for a unilateral partial denture is that the patient does not want to restore the space with a fixed partial denture. One drawback to this treatment modality is that the prosthesis needs to be removed after each meal and cleaned. Other more important reasons for not making a 1-tooth removable partial denture is that it provides no cross-arch stabilization and there is the chance that it may be swallowed if it becomes dislodged. This clinical and laboratory report describes how this patient was treated.
