17
Q

Elimination of gross occlusal interferences:

A
  • Selective grinding is indicated when associated with pathologic condition
  • Deflective contacts in centric path of closure are removed
  • Balancing or non-chewing side interferences should be removed
18
Q

Occlusal equilibration:

A

Occlusal equilibration done priory on diagnostic cast serves as a blueprint for selective grinding in mouth

19
Q

CORRECTION OF OCCLUSAL PLANE:

What are discrepencies in occlusal plane caused by?

A

DISCREPENCIES IN OCCLUSAL PLANE IS DUE TO:

  • Infra erupted teeth
  • Super erupted teeth
  • Tipped molars
  • Mesially drifted teeth
20
Q

Treated Pulpless Teeth
Criteria to be followed to use them as abutment:

A
  • Canals have been filled to apex with what appears radio graphically to be well condensed filling material
  • No radioluscency at apex
  • Tooth has been clinically asymptomatic since therapy was accomplished
21
Q

ABUTMENT TOOTH WITH PULPITIS:

A

ENDODONTIC TREATMENT SHOULD BE CONSIDERED !

  • Abutment tooth healthy from standpoint
  • Favorable crown root ratio
  • Prosthesis itself is satisfactory
  • When mouth is in state of good health
22
Q

PREPARATION OF ABUTMENT TEETH-

OBJECTIVES:

A
  • Directs stress along long axis of tooth
  • Eliminating interference by recontouring of teeth
  • Creating retention by simple alteration procedures
  • Allows placement and removal of prosthesis without having it transmitting wedging types of stress against teeth with which it comes in contact
23
Q

CLASSIFICATION OF ABUTMENT TEETH:

A
  • Abutment teeth that require only minor modifications to their coronal portions
  • Abutment teeth that are to have restorations other than complete coverage crowns
  • Abutment teeth that are to have crowns
24
Q

PREPARATION OF GUIDING PLANES:

A
  • Diagnostic cast mounted on surveying table at the tilt at which design of removable denture was drawn should be placed on table in front of patient
  • Hand piece with appropriate diamond instrument in place positioned over cast to visualize relationship of hand piece and diamond instrument and can be duplicated in patients mouth
  • Flat surface created should be 2-4mm in occluso-gingival height
  • Reduction should follow curvature of proximal surface
25
Q

ABUTMENT TOOTH ADJACENT TO DISTAL EXTENSION EDENTULOUS SPACES:

A
  • Occluso gingival height reduced to 1.5-2mm
  • Permits partial denture to Rotate Slightly around distal occlusal rest as downward force occurs on artificial teeth
  • Avoids torquing forces on abutment teeth
26
Q

LINGUAL SURFACES preparation:

A
  • Occlusogingival height should be 2-4mm
  • Provides maximum resistance to lateral stresses
27
Q

ANTERIOR ABUTMENT TEETH:

A
  • Provides parallelism, ensures stabilization
  • Minimize wedging action between teeth
  • Increase retention through frictional resistance
  • Decrease undesirable space between denture and abutment teeth
28
Q

PREPARATION OF REST SEAT:

A
  • Provides parallelism, ensures stabilization
  • Minimize wedging action between teeth
  • Increase retention through frictional resistance
  • Decrease undesirable space between denture and abutment teeth
29
Q

OCCLUSAL REST:

A
  • Outline form of occlusal rest is triangular with base of triangle at marginal ridge and apex towards center of tooth
  • Apex of triangle and external margins of preparation should be rounded
  • Extension of rest seat preparation should vary from 1/3 to 1⁄2 the mesiodistal diameter of tooth
  • Buccolingual extent should be half the distance between buccal and lingual cusp tips
  • Floor must be spoon shaped
  • Angle formed by inclination of floor of rest and vertical projection of proximal surface of tooth must be less than 90 degrees
30
Q

Occlusal rest preparation:

A
  • First channel of correct depth and desired outline of preparation is created by small round diamond stone
  • Lower the marginal ridge at either buccal or lingual extent of rest seat to continue inward towards centre of tooth and to return to marginal ridge
  • Island of enamel remains with in outline form can be removed and shaped
  • Deepest portion of rest seat is towards centre of tooth preparation raises gradually towards marginal ridge
31
Q

Rest seat preparation in amalgam restorations:

A
  • Less desirable as amalgam alloy tends to flow under constant pressure
  • Rest seats are prepared using no.4 round bur
  • Care must be taken not to weaken proximal portion of amalgam restoration
32
Q

REST SEAT PREPARATION FOR EMBRASSURE CLASP:

A
  • Preparation extends over occlusal embrasure of two approximating posterior teeth from mesial fossa of one tooth to distal fossa of other tooth
  • Small round diamond stone is used to establish out line form for normal occlusal rest in each of approximating fossa
  • Contact point between teeth should not be broken
  • Same round diamond stone is used to carry buccal and lingual extension of occlusal rests over buccal and lingual embrasures
  • Cylindrical diamond stone is held horizontally from buccal surfaces of teeth pointing towards lingual surface
  • Stone is held against distal incline of buccal cusp of one tooth and mesial incline of buccal cusp of other tooth to create occlusal clearance
  • Preparation should be 1.5-2mm wide and 1.5mm deep as it passes over buccal and lingual embrasures
    *
33
Q

LINGUAL REST SEAT:

A
  • Outline form is half-moon shaped
  • Forms a smooth curve from one marginal ridge to other crossing centre of tooth incisally to cingulum
  • Rest seat is v shaped
  • Labial incline of lingual surface of tooth forms one wall of v shaped notch other starts from top of cingulum and inclines linguo gingivally towards centre of tooth to meet other wall of preparation
  • Lingual rest is prepared in enamel of surface of anterior tooth if it is sound and with prominent cingulum
34
Q

Mandibular canines-lingual rests:

A
  • Mandibular canines are poor candidates for placing lingual rests
35
Q

LINGUAL REST SEAT PREPARATION:

A
  • Using cylinder diamond cut should be made low on one marginal ridge pass over cingulum and pass gingivally to contact opposite marginal ridge
  • Rest seat must be gingival to contact level of opposing tooth
36
Q

INCISAL REST SEAT:

A
  • Least desirable rests on anterior teeth
  • Used only on enamel surface
  • Usually placed near incisal angles of canine
37
Q

INCISAL REST SEAT-PREPARATION:

A
  • Small safe side diamond disk is held parallel to path of insertion
  • First cut is made vertically 1.5-2mm deep in form of notch and 2.3mm inside proximal angle of tooth
  • Small flame shaped diamond point is used to complete preparation
  • Enamel wall created by disk towards center of tooth must be rounded
  • Base of notch is also rounded
  • Groove that results after notch has been completely rounded must be carried slightly onto labial surface and partway down to lingual surface as an indentation
