N2  - Kennedy Class I and II cases can present significant challenges in prosthetic rehabilitation, particularly when encountering a complete denture. Retention may sometimes be hindered due to the nature of the remaining soft and hard tissues. While implant-supported prostheses are usually considered the optimal solution for such cases, they may not be feasible for patients with certain health conditions. Traditional cast partial dentures with clasps are an alternative, but they often lack aesthetic appeal, making them less desirable for many patients. A suitable option in these scenarios is the use of extra-coronal attachment retained prostheses. These offer a combination of fixed and removable components that provide a more aesthetically pleasing and easier-to-manage solution compared to both implant-supported options and clasp-retained partial dentures. This case report discusses the rehabilitation of a Kennedy Class I edentulous situation encountering a complete denture using extra-coronal attachments.
