PDI Lecture Part II Flashcards
what are the 3 classifications for PDI
- edentulous
- partially edentulous
- dentate
what are the 4 categories for each classification
class I - class IV
what are the 4 considerations in class 1 partial edentulism
- location and extent of edentulous area
- abutment condition
- occlusion
- residual ridge morphology
describe the location and extent of edentulous areas in class I partial edentulism
- edentulous area confined to a single arch and may include:
- anterior maxillary span that does not exceed 2 incisors
- anterior mandibular span that does not exceed 4 missing incisors or
- posterior span that does not exceed 2 premolars or 1 premolar and 1 molar
describe the abutment condition in class I partially edentulous patient
no need for pre prosthetic surgery
describe the occlusion in class I partially edentulous patient
- no need for pre prosthetic therapy
- class I molar and jaw relationships
what are the biomechanical considerations for partial fixed denture prosthesis
- number of abutment teeth and number of missing teeth - simple vs complex
- splinted or pier abutment
- non-parallel abutments
- combined anterior and posterior FDP
describe class I partial edentulism partially edentulous patient
- ideal or minimally compromised edentulous area, abutment condition, and occlusion
- there is a single edentulous area in 1 sextant
- the residual ridge is considered type A
describe the location and extent of the edentulous area in class II partially edentulous patient
- moderately compromised
- both arches have edentulous spaces and 1 of the following
- anterior maxillary span that does not exceed 2 incisors
- anterior mandibular span that does not exceed 4 missing incisors
- posterior span that does not exceed 2 premolars or 1 premolar and 1 molar
- any missing canine (maxillary or mandibular)
describe the abutment condition in class II partially edentulous patient
- moderately compromised
- insufficient tooth structure to retain or support intracoronal or extracoronal restorations - 1 or 2 sextants
- abutments in 1-2 sextants require localized adjunctive therapy
describe the occlusion in class II partially edentulous patient
- moderately compromised
- occlusion requires localized adjunctive therapy - enameloplasty- prematurities
- class I molar and jaw relationships are seen
what is the most common FDP to replace more than two teeth with success
mandibular anterior FPD replacing 4 incisors
why does the mandibular anterior FPD replacing 4 incisors have a better prognosis than maxillary
direction of forces inward towards arch
what are the weakest potential abutments in a mandibular anterior FPD
lateral incisors and adjacent premolar
what is the optimal abutment in a mandibular anterior FPD
canines
what is the prognosis for maxillary FPDs supported by canines and why
decreased prognosis and higher stresses/forces
what is the PDI for replacing a missing canine
class II or higher
what are the considerations for replacing a canine
- adjacent premolar and lateral incisor are weakest potential abutments
- maxillary replacement- forces outside inter abutment axis and directed outward
what is the best option for replacing a missing canine
implant supported single crown
