removable prosthodontics Flashcards
What four types of dentures are there?
partial upper denture
Complete upper denture
Partial lower denture
Complete lower denture
two types of removable prosthodontics
removable partial denture
Removable full denture
six extraoral factors for selecting, removable prosthodontics
1) physical health
2) mental health
3) motivation
4) age
5) dietary habits
6) occupation in social and economic factors
what area of your physical health impacts the selection of removable prosthesis?
If your tissues cannot withstand the pressure or patient cannot cooperative during segregation in Centre
How does your mental health affect? The selection of removal processes is
Patient might not be able to keep processes in mouth organ have a lack of adequate oral hygiene
What tooth would you never replace?
Third molar
How does motivation impact selection of removable prosthesis?
Lack of motivation to clean teeth would damage aesthetics
how does age impact the selection of removable prosthesis
-A young patient there’s still growth
-Activation process must be strong
-Old patient might want to return to that should be extracted resulting in an unstable environment
how does dietary habits affect the selection of removable prosthesis
Poor nutrition can cause portage she responds that may affect tolerance and comfort
How would occupation and social, and economic factors affect the selection of removable prosthesis
Public person might want to have something fixed as so the teeth don’t fall out as well as cost and lack of patient understanding
Clearance
Removal of all teeth
seven intraoral factors that may affect the selection of removable prosthesis
musculature
Salivary flow
Residual alveolar ridge
Oral mucosa
Aural habits
Tori
Are Howard musculature affect the selection of removable prosthesis
Facial muscles provide retention and control meaning that facial spasms can cause denture to lose its suction, as well as a large tongue can impact suction
How is salivary flow affect a selection of removable prosthesis
too much saliva can be produced when a prosthesis is introduced
Xerostomia can make a prosthesis difficult to wear
How does a residual alveolar ridge affect the selection of removable prosthesis
If the patient has a resorbed, uneven, residual, alveolar ridge, there’s bad support and often patient discomfort and alveoplasty may have to be performed
How does oral mucosa affect the selection of removable prosthesis?
Sore spots are pressure points may develop on the tissue that has altered by the patient physical condition
how does a patient oral habits affect the selection of removable prosthesis
bruxism or clenching can cause stress on the alveolar ridge and the remaining teeth
Someone who is termed, a mouth breather, might not be able to retain a prosthesis in the mouth
how does Tori affect the selection of a removable prosthesis?
May get in the way and have to be removed before fabrication of the processes
Clasps
Help to hold the teeth intact
edentulous
Patient has no teeth
Components of a full denture
base
Flange
Post dam
Artificial teeth
indications for a full denture
-Patient is edentulous
-remaining teeth cannot be saved -remaining teeth cannot support a removable, partial denture, and no acceptable alternatives are available
-Patient refuses alternative treatment
contradictions for a full denture
Acceptable alternative is available
Bad physical or mental health
patient is hypersensitive to denture materials
Patient is not interested in fixing remaining teeth
Base of a full denture
Designed to fit over the residual, alveolar ridge and surrounding gingival area
Flange
Part of the base of extends over the attached, because it from circle margin of the teeth to the border of the denture
Post dam
retention of a maxillary denture, depends on the suction seal
