Preparation of the mouth for removable partial dentures
Clinical Dentistry Reviewed, 2016The 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.

Occlusal requirements for removable partial dentures
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1967Abstract This article discusses a philosophy of occlusion, its mechanism, and its effects in removable partial denture construction. It suggests that: 1. The support for an extension base removable partial denture must be distributed between both the residual ridge and the remaining teeth so that neither is individually overloaded. 2.

Occlusion in removable partial dentures
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1960Abstract 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, 2019Removable 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 ...

Telescope retainers for removable partial dentures
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1981Telescope crowns used in removable partial dentures reduce the destructive horizontal and rotational occlusal forces by directing them more axially and less traumatically than other retainers. These properties are combined with excellent conditions for cross-arch and multiple abutment splinting.

Planning removable partial dentures
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1962Abstract Clasp-retained removable partial dentures should not be designed solely for efficiency in mastication. In many instances, a compromise is necessary. This is acceptable as long as it is not a compromise with evil. Too great an efficiency quotient may be almost immediately destructive to supporting teeth and other tissues.

Removable partial dentures without rests
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1994Ever 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 ...

Biomechanics of Removable Partial Dentures
2016Biomechanics is the study of the structure and function of biological systems by means of mechanics. Functional mandibular movement is defined as all the normal, proper, or characteristic of three-dimensional movements of the mandible during speech, mastication, swallowing, and other associated movements.

Clasp repair for removable partial dentures
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1973Summary A method has been described for replacing fractured clasps with cast components attached by soldering to other metallic portions or attached to the denture base with cold-curing acrylic resin. The technique is a useful approach to solving the recurring problem of repairing removable partial dentures.

Esthetic attachments for removable partial dentures
The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1967Abstract The use of clasps in removable partial dentures is hardly conceivable. The esthetic and other advantages of internal attachments far outweigh those of external retainers. The types, classification, and certain advantages and indications for the use of attachments were described.
