Experience and knowledge on the part of the dentist and laboratory technician of difficulties and limitations of each clinical and laboratory step are essential components to successful fabrication and maintenance of these relatively complex restorations.
This article reports a full mouth rehabilitation utilizing fixed and cast removable partial prosthesis, combining them with extra coronal castable semi precision attachment (Ceka preci-clix 1271 extra coronal attachment).
