11/7 Flashcards
prosthesis is a____
general
SUBSITUTION for the lost dentition
characteristics of fixed and removable patients
missing teeth
may have or had RPD
teeth decay, or period
OCCLUSAL DISHARMONY
insufficient teeth to eat
aestehtic issues
- risk associated with that
- reclusive
what to do if more young
hang on to teeth PRESERVE BONE – generally adapt well
if patient more old
need to keep strategic eeth
so not as important to keep nonstrategic / all teeth
less adaptive than the young
xerostomia is a problem
physiologic shock?
YES – all patients - loss of teeth
assessment considerations -general 3
anatomical
dentition
design
anatomical considerations
ridge relationship
- mandible to maxilla? excessive appropriate or deficient
inter ridge space - can it even fit
plane of occlusion violation - supraeruption often against edentuous area
tori, undercuts, ridge prominence, frenum
ridge quality and height
tissue quality
tongue position and size
in fixed / or removable you need a prognosis of the abutment teeth?
YES – a single tooth can alter treatment plan
the end therapy- goal is predictable dentistry – we do NOT want to have to treat this tooth / area again
diagnostic mounted models for what?
longer list
- determine the PLANE OF OCCLUSION
- look for supra erupted teeth / infra-erupted teeth
- intra arch space
- strategic teeth for the support of the prosthesis / support of the OCCLUSION
- number and location of the occlusal untis
- analysis of the occlusion
if patient has current RPDS? how get mounted models? what if edentulous?
take impression with the prosthesis in it – then remove RPD from impression and make casts and mount
make daignositc moles of edentulouos ridge and make wax rim and mount case
mount in CR or MIP?
default is CR for most distal extension cases - use CR more often than not
when is MIP mount acceptable
specificaly when?
when there is an adequate number of teeth to provide good tripodization of tooth contacts / support AFTER tooth prep
what do majority of tissue borne RPDs require for mounting?
require occlusion rims for mounting the cases so an additional visit must be planned
when determine the need for occlusal support?
during FIXED THERAPY
prepare rest seats and guide planes when?
on the CASTS to see if we will have problems
survey and design on?
best done on the second model
select abutment teeth
prep and make guide planes on the cast
