Abstrakt: The provision of removable partial dentures (RPDs) is an important skill for practitioners. It can often be challenging to make a successful prosthesis which the patient finds satisfactory. This three-part series has been designed to provide an overview of the clinical management of patients requiring RPDs. This second part discusses three clinical scenarios that may be commonly faced in general dental practice: the use of immediate dentures for patients requiring extractions; the management of patients with lone-standing teeth using windowed dentures; and the incorporation of surveyed crowns into cobalt chromium RPDs. For each clinical technique, the advantages, disadvantages and indications are summarised.
