There were 42 complete dentures in 21 cases, 40 single jaw complete dentures and maxillary removable partial dentures in 20 cases and 40 removable partial dentures in upper and lower jaw, totally 61 cases and 122 dentures. RESULTS: After wearing the removable denture, the appearance, chewing and pronunciation of the children were improved significantly.
