Abstract

A 55-year-old man wearing maxillary and mandibular clasp-retained removable partial dentures (RPDs) sought improvement in retention, support, mastication efficiency, and esthetics. Three prosthodontic treatment options were provided to the patient, who selected maxillary and mandibular conical crown-retained removable partial dentures (CCRPDs) without strategic implants. Oral health-related quality of life (OHRQoL) and satisfaction of the patient were evaluated before treatment and 2 weeks and 1 year after inserting the CCRPDs. The patient reported better retention, support, stability, mastication efficiency, esthetics, and an improved OHRQoL after CCRPD placement than before treatment. These improvements were maintained after 1 year.
