infrabulge
Which of the following major connectors is NOT used in a maxillary arch?
lingual bar

6-8 mm
Depth of marginal ridge in rest seat:
1-1.5 mm
Undercut for a cast chromium clasp:
0.01 inches
T/F: The proximal plate is adjusted before the rest seat. S-curved survey line is for retentive, not reciprocal
Both statements true
Which function of major connectors disperses lateral forces?
cross-arch stabilization
What RPD component transfers forces down the long axis?

Middle; middle
Why do we not want excessive tilt to the cast when surveying?
want cast to be perpenidicular to the occlusal plane

What does NOT apply to guiding planes?
Never use an occlusal rest on mesially tilted mandibular molars for rest seats

master cast
what is the pod?
part of the I-bar that contacts the 0.01” undercut
What do you remove on alternative/altered cast?
distal extensions
What is drawn in red on the cast?
Undercuts
Where can you NOT put an I-bar clasp?
DF undercut
T/F: As the length of the guiding plane increases, frictional retention is increased. When length is increased, resistance to rotation is increased.
