This case report highlights the necessity, advantages, clinical results, and significance of removable complete dentures as a comprehensive rehabilitation option for children with severe early childhood caries. Early childhood caries requires multidisciplinary approach that includes diagnosis, treatment planning, and oral function maintenance in order to restore aesthetics, mastication, phonation and oral health in children. The chief complaint of a 5-year-old girl who was referred to the Department of Pediatric and Preventive Dentistry was the early loss and total destruction of her milk teeth, combined with eating difficulties and repeated hospital visits due to dental infections. Prosthetic rehabilitation with removable dentures has the benefit of optimum comfort and allowing for simple adjustments while the jaws are growing and developing.
