title: [Esthetics and removable partial dentures: a contradiction?].
abstract: Although modern developments in dentistry constrict the indication of removable partial dentures, there is still a number of situations in which a partial denture may contribute to the re-establishment of function, esthetics included. Thereto it is a necessity that all parts of the construction are carefully designed, with special attention for color and form. Choice of the artificial teeth (material), the handling of the acrylic and an adequate anchoring are all important factors in reaching an optimal result.
