Not commonly done: These are tiny removable partial dentures that have fallen out of favor primarily because they can be aspirated or swallowed easily if dislodged. Patients who have had them love them typically. The code designated for that procedure is D5281

Unilateral RPD: D5281 is the code. Not sure what you consider expensive (you seem to think that most of your dental work is expensive by your numerous questions and comments). And yes, it is a denture.

Partial Resin Base: D5212 is lower partial resin base inc. clasps. The total number of teeth replaced by a partial has minimal impact on its overall price. The cost of partial dentures depends on geographical location and the type of dental insurance you have.
