Preservation of natural teeth is the current primary concern in dentistry. The presence of few teeth in the oral cavity aids in the preservation of alveolar ridge integrity, the maintenance of proprioception, and the patient's psychological well-being. A Cu-sil denture is a novel alternative treatment option for those who desire to replace their lost teeth while retaining their few remaining teeth. This case study describes an alternate procedure for making Cu-sil-like denture in the maxilla and traditional cast partial denture (CPD) in the mandibular arch.
