Before Midterm: Biomechanics of Partial Denture Design Flashcards
Which type of partial will move?
tooth supported
Tooth-tissue supported partials:
Class I, II, and IV
Residual ridge provides only ___% of the support compared to the PDL.
0.4
Soft tissues are ____ times more displaceable than the adjacent teeth
250
Thickness of periodontal membrane:
0.25mm
In Class I and II, occlusal loads caues;
displacement of distal extension
Force exerted on a Class ! or 2 tooth-tissue supported partial may cause:
distal tipping of abutment
Force exerted on a Class 4 tooth-tissue supported partial may cause:
displacement of anterior extension, mesial tipping of abutment
WHat do differences in tooth and soft tissue support result in?
nono-axial loading, damaging to abutments, moust be controlled
Non-axial loading can result in:
mobility and restoration failure
What does the force on abutment teeth depend on ?
ratio of tooth vs tissue support
Order of how effective the different class of levers are:
1st through 3rd
What class lever system can do greatest amt for work with least amt of effort
Class 1
Where is the object to be moved in relation to the fulcrum and force for a Class 1, most efficient, fulcrum?
opposite the force w the fulcrum in the center
This lever system represents the wheel barrel:
2nd class
This lever system represents a man fishing:
Class 3
What type of lever system is created with loading of distal extension base?
1st class lever
Where does rotation occur around a 1st class clever system?
around distal abutment
What does the framework rotation have a direct impact on?
clasp assembly
Consequence of poor clasp selection
overlioading abutment
Occlusal loading of the distal extension w a circumferential clasp causes:
rotation around fulcrum, retentive clasp to move superiorly, engaging the UC, causing the abutment to move distally (why distal?)
These forces are created when there is rotation about the fulcrum:
off axis forces
What can off axis forces lead to?
partial denture to start pulling abutment tooth posteriorly
TF? Circumferential clasps are recommended w a distal extension base
F. use stress releasing clasps (all infrabulge except for wrought wire clasp which is considered stress releasing)
TF? All stress releasing clasps are infrabulge clasps.
F. wrought wire is not infrabulge
Where does the framework fulcrum with occlusal loading of the distal extension for T clasp?
at the rest
Direction of forces w occ loading of distal extension with a T clasp:
M and apical, abutment moves M (down and forward)
What resists M movement of teh abutment with a T clasp distal extension?
mesial contact
Aspect of the T clasp assembly that decreases forces on the abutment tooth:
When retentive feature moves down it disengages form the UC
Location of the retentive feature of clasp:
right below rest
Occlusal loading of the distal extension w an I bar causes:
retentive clasp moves M and A, disengaging from UC
Where does the framework fulcrum with occlusal loading of the distal extension for I bar?
mesial rest
I bar is similar to which Class lever system?
Class II
Most favorable clasp for distal extension:
I bar (check)
Is the fulcrum anterior or posterior to the resistance in I bar clasp?
anterior
