Q

bar clasp rules for approach arm

A
  1. must not impinge on soft tissue
  2. tapered
  3. cross gingival margin at 90 degrees
  4. extend onto abutment tooth to HOC
    • not positioned over soft tissues undercut: food trap, tissue irritation

Q

tooth supported RPD clasps:

A
  1. circumferential
    -most common
    retentive undercut remote from endentulous area
    -reciprocal clasp
  2. I-bar
    -mesiofacial, midfacial undercut
    -reciprocal clasp
    -tissue undercut prevents use
  3. 1/2 T bar
    -retentive undercut adjacent to endentulous area
    -distal-facial undercut
    -reciprocal clasp
    -tissue undercut prevents use
  4. reverse circlet (hairpin)
    -retentive undercut adjacent to edentulous area
    -*used when tissue undercut present and T bar cant be used
    -excess tooth coverage, disadvantage
  5. embrasure clasp
    -used when retainer is necessary in a dentate area
    -class III and IV arch with no mod spaces
    -also class II tooth-tissue supported with no mod

Q

imaginary line connecting occlusal rests around which a partial removable dental prosthesis tends to rotate under masticatory forces.

determinants for this line are usually the cross arch occlusal rests located adjacent to the tissue borne components

A

13
Q

tooth-tissue supported RPD class selection:

A

-rotation of the RPD toward residual ridge around the horizontal fulcrum line
1. factor in class I and II extensions
2. RPD potentially functions as lever
3. can result in detrimental clasp forces on the abutment teeth

14
Q

why rotation of RPD toward the residual ridge around the horizontal fulcrum line?

A

-difference in potential movement of abutment and mucoperiosteum over residual ridge
-0.25,, periodontal ligament, 2mm mucoperiosteum
-0.25mm=0.01” (related to retentive clasp)

16
Q

distal rest/distal guide plane:
(for distal extension RPD clasp selection)

A

class I lever
-torquing force on abutment

17
Q

mesial rest/distal guide plane

A

class II lever
-retentive tip disengages abutment
-*stress-release clasp design

(what we want since dont want retentive clasp to be anterior to termina rest fulcrum line???)

18
Q

anterior placement of the rest helps direct the forces:

A

more vertically onto tissues of residual ridge

19
Q

tooth-tissue supported (distal extension) RPD clasp selection:
stress-release clasps used on=
what clasps=

A

class I and II RPD distal abutments
-RPI clasp assembly (rest, proximal plate, I-bar)
-RPC (A) clasp assembly (rest, proximal plate, Circumferential clasp)
-combination clasp
-1/2 T clasp
-revere circumferential clasp

20
Q

RPI class assembly made of

A

rest
proximal plate
I-bar
-mesiofacial or Mid-facial retentive undercut

reciprocation:
-ML minor connector
-distal proximal plate

21
Q

RPI clasp assembly prepared guiding planes:
distal
ML minor connector

A

distal guiding plane:
occlusal 1/3 to 1/2
2-3mm
guide plate contacts ~1-1.5mm of plane
undercut is necessary below the guide plane

ML minor connector GP:
occlusal 1/3
1-2mm

22
Q

RPI class assembly structural details:

A
  1. I-bar 2mm contact at retentive undercut
  2. approach arm
    -3mm from gingival margin
    -crosses gingival margin 90 degrees
  3. distal proximal plate width
    -line angle to line angle
  4. major connector
    -3mm from gingival mand
    -6mm from gingival max
23
Q

RPI class assembly stress release:

A

-rotation around mesial rest/fulcrum
-distal guide plate and I-bar move mesiogingivally
(I-bar disengages from tooth=stress release)
-ML minor conenctors rotates mesio-occlusally

24
Q

with RPI clasp assembly, stress release design to have relief below:

A

distal plate: undercut below guide plane
-allow proximal plate to move

ML minor connector not contact adjacent tooth to allow rotation

25
Q

with RPI clasp assembly, need ___mm separation between vertical minor connector and if cant, then should use lingual plate

A

5mm

26
Q

contraindications for RPI clasp

A

-excess tissue undercut
-shallow vestibule
-abutment excess facial inclination(high survey line, retentive undercut too high and not in gingival 1/3)

27
Q

RPC clasp assembly

A
  1. rest(mesial)
  2. proximal plate
  3. circumferential clasp
  4. mesiofacial retentive undercut
  5. circumferential retentive clasp
    -*cast round for class I w/o mod and periodontally compromised teeth

reciprocation:
1. ML minor connector
2. distal proximal plate wrap to lingual

28
Q

RPC clasp assembly structural details:

A
  1. hybrid clasp: RPI and circumferential concepts
  2. similar to circumferential retentive clasp
    -proximal 2/3: middle 1/3 of tooth ON survey line
    -terminal retentive 1/3: gingival 1/3, below survey line

guide planes same as RPI

29
Q

RPC clasp assembly stress release:

30
Q

RPC clasp assembly stress release designed to have relief below:

    -RPC, RPI no stress release
33
Q

combination clasp stress release

A
  1. rotation occurs at DISTAL REST minor connector
  2. clasp moves occlusally
    -class I level occurs
    -distal torquing force occurs

37
Q

overview tooth-supported RPD selection

A
  1. rests adjacent to endentulous areas
  2. clasps by convience
    -no fulcrum lines, no rotation
    -determined by site of retentive undercut
    -tissue undercut
  3. reciprocation rules still aplly
    -**often cast circumferential clasp

(class III has no fulcrum line**)

38
Q

overview tooth-tissue supported (distal extension) RPD class selection

A
  1. mesial rests
  2. stress-release clasps used
  3. reciprocation still needed (ML minor connector and distal plate rather than circumferential reciprocal clasp)
