title: Removable cast partial dentures.
abstract: In planning treatment for partially edentulous patients, the dentist is often confronted with conditions that preclude fixed prosthodontics. In these instances the cast removable partial denture is often the alternative of choice. In planning and producing a removable partial denture that will be most satisfactory, a systematic evaluation at the very beginning of treatment can prevent many problems that often occur when planning is limited.
