1. Mr. Smith is scheduled for a lower partial denture. The partial will replace his molars on both
sides. How many teeth will make up the partial denture? What teeth will become the abutment teeth
for this prosthesis?

Partial denature is  usually used when one or a few of the natural teeth is still rooted into the upper or lower gum. In this case, Mr.Smith needs to implant to his lower jaw.

The number that will replace the partial denature is 4 artificial molars. This will be implanted  as two  on each side.

There  will be two abutments as : 29 and 20, with 2nd premolars.
