Abstract (English):	Partial tooth loss affects functions such as chewing, speech, and aesthetics, compromising the patient's quality of life and overall health. Removable partial dentures (RPDs) emerge as an effective alternative in cases where dental implants are not viable, whether due to anatomical, financial, or systemic limitations. The success of this type of rehabilitation depends on careful planning, which includes prosthesis design, abutment tooth support, and periodic adjustments. This study is a literature review conducted in the PubMed and BVS/LILACS databases, using the descriptors "Removable Partial Denture," "Dental Prosthesis Planning," and "Partially Edentulous Arch." After screening using inclusion and exclusion criteria, 12 articles were selected. The findings highlight the importance of history taking and systemic evaluation, especially in patients with comorbidities such as diabetes, which affect prosthesis fit. Intraoral evaluation and the use of technologies such as digitais scanning and CAD/CAM software increase treatment accuracy and predictability. The balance of masticatory forces and the appropriate choice of materials directly impact prosthesis durability and patient satisfaction, as demonstrated by instruments such as the OHIP-14. Therefore, the integration of technology and clinical knowledge is essential for effective rehabilitation with RPDs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Portuguese):	A perda dentária parcial afeta funções como mastigação, fala e estética, comprometendo a qualidade de vida e a saúde geral do paciente. A prótese parcial removível (PPR) surge como uma alternativa eficaz em casos em que os implantes dentários não são viáveis, seja por limitações anatômicas, financeiras ou condições sistêmicas. O sucesso desse tipo de reabilitação depende de um planejamento criterioso, que inclui o desenho da prótese, suporte dos dentes pilares e ajustes periódicos. Este estudo é uma revisão da literatura realizada nas bases PubMed e BVS/LILACS, com os descritores "Prótese Parcial Removível", "Planejamento de Prótese Dentária" e "Arcada Parcialmente Edêntula". Após a triagem com critérios de inclusão e exclusão, foram selecionados 12 artigos. Os achados destacam a importância da anamnese e avaliação sistêmica, especialmente em pacientes com comorbidades como o diabetes, que afetam a adaptação da prótese. A avaliação intraoral e o uso de tecnologias como varredura digital e softwares CAD/CAM aumentam a precisão e previsibilidade do tratamento. O equilíbrio das forças mastigatórias e a escolha adequada dos materiais impactam diretamente a durabilidade da prótese e a satisfação do paciente, conforme demonstrado por instrumentos como o OHIP-14. Assim, a integração entre tecnologia e conhecimento clínico é essencial para uma reabilitação eficaz com PPR. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
