title: Treatment planning and design: prevention of errors of omission and commission.
abstract: It has been emphasized how fully removable partial prosthodontics can and should affect the mouth in a program of preventive dentistry. Indeed, a partial denture can have greater effect than any other single restoration. Additionally, among the many aspects and procedures in treatment planning and design, are a number of very familiar but often neglected ones. Hopefully the reader will seriously ask himself if he is routinely including them in his planning and execution.
