title: Claspless chrome-cobalt transitional removable partial dentures.
abstract: Many of the acrylic resin and bent-wire temporary partial dentures in use today produce pathologic changes in the oral mucosa. A method is outlined for the use of chrome-cobalt, instead of acrylic resin, to produce temporary prostheses. The resulting temporary partial dentures are esthetically pleasing and biologically acceptable to the oral tissues.
