Preparation of the mouth for removable partial dentures

Clinical Dentistry Reviewed, 2016
The long-term prognosis of removable partial dentures should rely on optimal tissue and tooth support. A good technical work is not the only factor bringing clinical success. Denture-bearing areas, abutment teeth, and all surrounding tissues should be adequately prepared before any impression for initialization of denture fabrication is attempted.

Occlusion in removable partial dentures

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1960
Abstract For a successful removable partial denture, the occlusal pattern of the natural teeth should be harmonized with the temporomandibular joints, and this same occlusal pattern should be incorporated into the artificial teeth. When this procedure is followed, the comfort, efficiency, and longevity of the removable partial denture is greatly ...

Determining the retention of removable partial dentures

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 2019
Removable partial dentures (RPDs) provide a cost-effective treatment for millions of partially edentulous patients worldwide. However, they often fail because of loss of retention. One reason for this problem is lack of precise guidelines for designing retentive RPDs.The purpose of this in vitro study was to determine the forces produced by food and ...

Enhancing Student Learning in Removable Partial Denture Design by Using Virtual Three-Dimensional Models Versus Traditional Two-Dimensional Drawings - A Comparative Study.

Journal of Prosthodontics, 2019
PURPOSE To compare the use of virtual 3D casts as an alternative to paper-based exercises in preclinical removable partial denture (RPD) design in terms of student outcomes (as evidenced by exercise evaluation scores), as well as student attitudes ...

The segmented framework removable partial denture

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1987
The segmented framework removable partial denture is made of two cast metal individual segments joined with a resin major connector. The small individual framework segments can be made to fit well and the design permits ready correction of the tissue surface of the major connector through relining or an altered cast procedure.

Removable partial denture alloys processed by laser-sintering technique.

Journal of Biomedical Materials Research. Part B - Applied biomaterials, 2018
Removable partial dentures (RPDs) are traditionally made using a casting technique. New additive manufacturing processes based on laser sintering has been developed for quick fabrication of RPDs metal frameworks at low cost.

Removable partial dentures without rests

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1994
Ever since Bonwill recommended the use of rests on removable partial dentures in 1899, rests have been universally considered inviolate and have gone unchallenged and untested. The author claims that removable partial dentures without rests may not cause the adverse conditions usually predicted, such as gingival stripping, gingival inflammation ...

The tooth-removable partial denture interface

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1992
During the metal finishing phase of removable partial denture construction, metal is removed from all aspects of the casting. The amount removed from areas designed to contact prepared surfaces of abutments is critical to the resulting fit of the partial.
