embrasure portions of the clasp
● should be used with double occlusal rests.

A

Embrasure Clasp

56
Q

Indication

molars.

A

Ring Clasp

57
Q

it is used when a proximal undercut cannot
be approached by undercut means

A

Ring Clasp

58
Q

should always be used with a supporting strut on the non-retentive side, with or without an auxiliary occlusal rest on the
opposite marginal ridge.

A

Ring Clasp

59
Q

Design
- clasp approaches undercut from edentulous area and engages undercut opposite to edentulous space.

A

Circumferential/Akers clasp

60
Q

correct form of this clasp has only one retentive clasp arm, opposed by a non-retentive reciprocal arm on the opposite side.

A

Circumferential/Akers clasp

61
Q

Indication
- Tooth supported partial denture

A

Circumferential/Akers clasp

62
Q

Contraindication
- They cannot be used for distal extension cases as they engage the mesiobuccal undercut.

A

Circumferential/Akers clasp

63
Q

Hairpin Clasp

A

Reverse Action Clasp

64
Q

A simple circlet clasp in which the retentive arm
loops back to engage an undercut apical to the
point of origin.

A

Reverse Action Clasp

65
Q

used when a distofacial undercut is present
adjacent to the edentulous space

A

Reverse Action Clasp

66
Q

Consists of:
- retentive arm arising from one side of the tooth

A

Half and half clasp

67
Q
  • a reciprocal arm arising from the other direction on the opposite side of the tooth.
  • two minor connectors
A

Half and half clasp

68
Q

Indications
- Usually, it is used with isolated premolars and molars bounded and free end partial dentures

A

Half and half clasp

69
Q

A circumferential clasp which extends to neighboring teeth in order to provide increased splinting and stabilizing and to engage a more favorable undercut.

A

Extended Arm Clasp

70
Q

Indication
- used when the undercut on the tooth near the edentulous area is poor, while that on the adjacent tooth is suitable.

A

Extended Arm Clasp

71
Q

Advantages
- The clasp has splinting action
- Distributes lateral load over the two teeth.

A

Extended Arm Clasp

72
Q

Best Esthetics

A

Infrabulge Arm Clasps

73
Q

I-bar most common
- minimal contact w/ tooth surface so no
food accumulation
- minimal show of metal
- same function as other clasps

A

Infrabulge Arm Clasps

74
Q

Engages 0.01 inch undercut

Provides unilateral bracing

A

Infrabulge Arm Clasps

75
Q

“Y”, “T”, modified “T” and “U” less useful.

A

Infrabulge Arm Clasps

76
Q

● modification of the ring clasp with the same advantages and apparently no disadvantages
● difficult to justify it’s use.

A

Back-action Clasp

77
Q

simply two opposing circumferential clasps joined at the terminal end of the two reciprocal arms.

A

Multiple Clasp

78
Q

used when additional retention and stabilization are needed, usually on tooth-supported partial dentures.

A

Multiple Clasp

79
Q

may be used for multiple clasping in instances in which the partial denture replaces an entire half ot the dental arch.

A

Multiple Clasp
