43
Q

this concept is incorporated in the Swing-Lock design which consist labial or buccal bar that is connected to the major connector by a hinge at one end and a latch at the other end

A

LABIAL BAR

44
Q

→ support is provided by multiple rests on the remaining natural teeth

→ retention is provided by a bar type retentive clasps with arms contacting the infrabulge areas on the labial surface

A

Q

INDICATION OF THE SWING-LOCK CONCEPT
→ missing key abutments
→ unfavorable tooth contours
→ unfavorable soft tissue contours
→ teeth with questionable prognosis

A

LABIAL BAR

→ should not be used to connect anterior replacements with distal
extension bases

A

SINGLE PALATAL STRAP

49
Q

should have to be objectionably bulk to resist torque and
provide vertical support and horizontal stabilization but this
could interfere with speech

A

SINGLE PALATAL STRAP

50
Q

strap should be 8 mm wide or approximately as wide as the
combined width maxillary premolar and first molar

A

SINGLE PALATAL STRAP

51
Q

confined with an area bounded by 4 principal rests

A

SINGLE PALATAL STRAP

52
Q

NDICATION
→ bilateral edentulous space of short span in a tooth-supported restoration

A

SINGLE PALATAL STRAP

53
Q

relatively broad 8-10 mm

A

ANTERIOR-POSTERIOR STRAP

void rugae and tongue interference

A

ANTERIOR-POSTERIOR STRAP

55
Q

INDICATION

A

ANTERIOR-POSTERIOR STRAP

57
Q

inoperable palatal tori that does not extend posteriorly to the
junction of soft and hard palate

A

ANTERIOR-POSTERIOR STRAP

58

A

PALATAL PLATE

59
Q

anterior border follows the valleys between rugae and does not
extend anteriorly to indirect retainers on the first premolar

A

PALATAL PLATE

60
Q

INDICATION
→ Class I arch, remaining abutment is canine or first premolar
→ excessive vertical resorption
→ no palatal tori

A

PALATAL PLATE

61
Q

ADVANTAGES
→ uniform thinness and thermal conductivity of metal makes readily acceptable to tongue and underlying tissues
→ corrugation in the anatomic replica adds strength to the casting
→ surface irregularities are intentional therefore electrolytic
polishing is all that is needed
→ greater retention

A

PALATAL PLATE

62
Q

→ least desirable maxillary major connector
→ it should never be used arbitrarily
→ results to gingival irritation and periodontal damage

A

U-SHAPED PALATAL CONNECTOR

INDICATION
→ when a large inoperable palatal torus exist
→ several anterior teeth are to be replaced

A

U-SHAPED PALATAL CONNECTOR

→ fails to provide good support and permits impingement of
underlying soft tissue
→ need of increase thickness that results to hindrance to the tongue

A

U-SHAPED PALATAL CONNECTOR

65
