The presence of palatal and lingual tori complicates the rehabilitation of partially edentulous maxillary and mandibular arches with a removable partial denture, as a major connector in denture crosses the midline and joins the components on one side of the arch with another side. The present case report describes the modified design of major connectors used in maxillary and mandibular removable partial dentures for the management of Kennedy's Class 3 maxillary partially edentulous arch and Kennedy's Class 2 mandibular partially edentulous arches with multiple exostoses.
