Designing swinglock partial dentures

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1981
Abstract The basic design principles of swinglock removable partial dentures including (1) even stress distribution, (2) control of rotational forces, (3) absence of D-E hinges, (4) rests, and (5) placement of the labial retentive fingers have been discussed. Special instructions to swinglock removable partial denture patients and recommendations for

Designing Removable Partial Dentures

Dental Clinics of North America, 1984
Various designs have been suggested for the more frequently- occurring situations of the partially edentulous state. Obviously, a discussion of all the probabilities of design is not possible. The important factor is that basic principles are not violated.

Rotational path removable partial denture design

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1982
A detailed description of a rotational path of insertion design for removable partial dentures has been presented. By minimizing the use of conventional clasps, this technique offers some advantages. Rotational path designs may minimize adverse periodontal response to a removable partial denture by reducing plaque accumulation and may be applied in ...

Evolution of Removable Partial Denture Design

Journal of Prosthodontics, 1994
This is a brief overview of the progress of design philosophies of removable partial dentures. It begins in 1711 with the first published description of a removable partial denture prosthesis and continues, with discussion of the most significant discoveries, through 1990.

Periodontal aspects of partial denture design

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1952
Abstract Tooth loss is lost function, and partial dentures should as far as possible compensate for tooth loss in terms of functional performance and in preserving the health of oral tissues. Partial dentures are no more permanent than their abutments, the mucoperiosteum and bone under their saddles.

Microcomputer-aided removable partial denture design

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1989
A microcomputer-based program for the design of removable partial dentures is described that has an interactive user interface to conduct a heuristic search of removable partial denture design data and produces computer-generated design graphics. The program is useful educationally and clinically.

Lingual flange design in complete dentures

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1977
The lingual design advocated for complete lower dentures involves no changes in current concepts regarding minimum-pressure, functional impression techniques. The sublingual horizontal extension suggested is placed in a biologically acceptable fashion by increasing the area of the denture, which enhances retention and stability.

Contemporary partial denture designs

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1958
Abstract I have attempted to excuse the shortcomings of the commercial dental laboratory by pointing out the responsibilities of the dentist for biologic partial denture design and his frequent failure to provide the laboratory technician with casts of properly prepared mouths and adequate prescriptions for him to follow.

The influence of denture design on patient acceptance of partial dentures

British Dental Journal, 1995
A study was designed to investigate the influence of denture design on patient acceptance of partial dentures. A total of 317 patients provided with partial dentures by the Department of Prosthodontics, Newcastle Dental School 2-3 years previously, were asked to complete a postal questionnaire about their use of these dentures.
