prostho 2 lec midterms tems Flashcards
That portion of the alveolar process that remained after extraction of tooth or teeth.
Residual Ridge
- Encircles an abutment tooth to provide retention, support and stability of the prosthesis.
(Clasp)
- Defined as the foundation on which a dental prosthesis rests, serves as a foundation.
(Support)
Quality of a prosthesis to be firm, stable, or constant and to resist displacement by functional, horizontal, or rotational stresses
STABILITY
Quality inherent in the denture that resists the vertical forces of dislodgement.
Retention
Portion of a tooth, or a portion of an implant that serves to support and/or retain a prosthesis
Abutment Tooth
Line encircling a tooth, designating its greatest circumference at a selected position determined by a dental surveyor
Height of Contour
When used in reference to an abutment tooth, is that portion of a tooth that lies between the height of contour and the gingiva
Undercut
Two or more vertically parallel surfaces of abutment teeth shaped to direct a prosthesis during placement and removal.

Mandibular deviation
TMJ dysfunction
Part of RPD that rests on the oral mucosa and to which the artificial teeth are attached.
Denture Base
Instrument used to determine the relative parallelism of two or more surfaces of the teeth or other parts of the cast of the dental arch.
Dental Surveyor
Locating and delineating the contour and position of the abutment teeth and associated tissues prior to designing an RPD
