Abstract
Cleft palate is a commonly observed congenital maxillofacial defect. Numerous methods of prosthodontic
rehabilitation have been advocated ranging from simple removable prosthesis to implant supported restorations. The final
choice mainly depends upon the existing clinical condition and patient’s acceptance towards treatment. This clinical report
describes a conservative and cost effective method of rehabilitation of a cleft palate patient using a removable partial
denture made from heat polymerizing acrylic resin.
