Q

The primary purpose of the rest is to

A
  1. Maintain the components in their planned position
  2. Maintain the established occlusal relationships
  3. Prevent impingement of tissues
  4. Direct and distribute the occlusal loads to abutment teeth

Q

Th angle formed by the occlusal rest and the vertical minor connector should be less than __ degrees

A

90 deg

17
Q

An angle greater than 90 degrees by the occlusal rest and the vertical minor connector causes?

A

Failure in transmitting occlusal forces along the supporting vertical axis of the abutment tooth

Permits slippage of prosthesis

18
Q

Preferred location for lingual rests

A

MAXILLARY CANINE and max central incisor

19
Q

Conditions where anterior teeth is employed as ites for external rests

A

If anterior teeth may be the only abutment available

Must be used to support an indirect retainer or auxillary rest

20
Q

Location of lingual rest

A

Prepared on the lingual surface at the junctionn of gingival and middle 1/3 of the tooth

21
Q

Incisal rest are more applicable on the ___ tooth

A

Mandibular canine

22
Q

The least desirable placement of a rest seat

May lead to orthodontic movements due to unfavorable leverage factors

A

Incisal rest

23
Q

Why does lingual rest is preferred over the incisal rest

A

Becauselingual rest is placed closer to the horizontal axis of rotating, which has a lesser tendency to tip the tooth

More eshetically acceptable

24
Q

Axis of rotation of incisal rest

A

Horizontal
