While designing the maxillary partial denture, it was seen that a clasp would have to be placed on the right central incisor. The RPD for the mandibular was designed and fabricated in the conventional manner.

Single metal ceramic crowns and a cast partial denture were planned for the maxillary and mandibular arches.

Post and core was customised for the grossly mutilated maxillary anterior teeth. Restorative and endodontic treatment procedures were initiated. Patient was advised to wear the interim removable prosthesis with an increased vertical dimension for 1 month, to determine the appropriate vertical dimension. According to the KennedyвЂ™s Classification System and ApplegateвЂ™s rules, the maxillary partially edentulous arch was classified as Class III and the mandibular arch as Class I. She was diagnosed for full-mouth rehabilitation. There was reduced vertical facial height due to loss of mandibular posterior teeth. Examination revealed that some of the teeth required conservative and endodontic treatment.
