Implant dentistry serves as an excellent treatment option to restore the edentulous areas. People with existing natural dentition often have a hard time psychologically accepting the idea of a removable appliance. Patients' preference for choosing which partial edentulous space has never been explored. We present one unique case that had two Kennedy’s partial edentulous situations (one tooth missing) with one in the esthetic zone (maxillary premolar) and the other in a non-esthetic zone (maxillary molar). The patient opted for restoring the mandibular tooth, first as part of his self reliance test for using implant supported restoration. A two stage surgery saw an endosseous (5.3 × 10 mm) implant fixture placed over which porcelain fused to metal restoration was screwed to the abutment. While the patient was happy with the outcome of the mandibular prosthesis, he never turned to restore the maxillary partial edentulous space
