FInal material want to memorize Flashcards
use palatal strap for
class III
small posterior edentulous areas, minimal tissue support required
use palatal plate for
I and II
[long span I and II with or without IV]
use anterior posterior strap for
I, II, with or without class IV (so can be used to replace anterior teeth)
or palatal tori
or strong, widely separated abutments
use horseshoe
high valuted palates
any connector is better than this
can be used to replace anterior teeth
use lingual bar
ONLY on tissues
#1 first choice
lingual plate
teeth and tissues
do NOT use when crowed anterior teeth
labial bar
used when have lingually inclined anterior or posterior teeth
name all maxillary major connectors
ant-post palatal strap
palatal plate
horseshoe
palatal strap
name all major mand connectors
lingual bar
lingual plate
labial bar
name all minor connector examples
-guiding plane plates
-meshwork to hold acrylic
-any unit connecting any type of rest to major connector
-indirect retainers
-direct retainers
-rests
when is indirect retainer always necessary
in class I or II situations
component used to retain and prevent dislodgement
direct retainers
like clasp assembly
component that helps direct retainer in preventing displacement by lever action of opposite side of fulcrum
indirect retainer
indirect retainer usually connects to major connector and is in some form of
rest
Cast for the purpose of diagnosis and treatment planning
dx cast
replica of teeth, residual ridges and other parts of the dental arch used to fabricate dental restoration or prosthesis
(used to make prosthesis)
master cast
where acrylic meets metal
external finish line
major connector want ___mm from GM
6 mm
minor connector want ___mm fron GM
3mm
palatal strap mm
8-10mm
ant-post straps mm
6-8mm
lingual bar mm
3 mm from gm, 4 mm width= 7mm total
use this mand major connector when have less than 7mm of space
lingual plate
As length is increased, frictional retention is increased and resistance to rotation is
increased
width of guiding planes
1/3 B-L width of tooth
1/2 distance between cusps
length of
tooth supported guiding planes:
tooth-tissue supported guiding planes
tooth: 3-4mm
tooth-tissue: 1.5-2mm
(tooth supported like class III and IV have larger length of guiding planes)
(support from tissue takes a role in stability also, so thats why smaller for tooth-tissue rpds)
four factors in finding path of insertion
- guiding planes
- retentive undercuts
- interferences
- esthetics
4 objectives of dental surveying
- find path of insertion
- mark HOC
- measure/mark retentive undercut
- tripod cast
retentive clasp location
reciprocal clasp location
retentive clasp:
proximal 2/3 suprabulge
terminal 1/3: infrabulge
1 mm from GM
in gingival 1/3
reciprocal clasp:
all in infrabulge
