Patient:
The alveolar bone and teeth for a patient involved in a traffic accident were prepared using removable partial dentures with I-C attachment.
Discussion:
Because of using no clasp in the front teeth, sufficient supporting force of the dentures and no throbbing pain after insertion of the dentures, the patient was fully satisfied with the appearance and functional results of the treatment.
Conclusion:
In a case of loss of front teeth, the patient was content with the smaller and esthetically excellent attachment instead of a clasp. Moreover, the patient is progressing favorably. It is considered that the I-C attachment was effective for this case.
