4 classes

36
Q

Who added more classes to Kennedy’s classification? how many?

A

Applegate 2 more

37
Q

Represents the number of additional edentulous areas apart from the main one

38
Q

42
Q

What do we do if there are 2 molars on the same side but no other teeth? (4)

A
  • Difficult
  • Best option: extract teeth and make CD
