DESIGNING RPD

Factors
influencing the
RPD
Design
• 1. One arch is to be restored or both

• 4. Need for abutment modification – clasp design.
5. Type of major connector indicated – e.g., a torus.
6. Materials to be used for framework, bases, & teeth

7. Patient’s past experience, i.e., patient’s inability to accept
lingual bar or palatal bar major connector.
8. Replacing a single tooth or anterior teeth – RPD or FPD.

Fibers of periodontal ligament are arranged such that
their resistance to vertical forces is much greater than

(ALTERED CAST IMPRESSION) (

ALTERED CAST IMPRESSION

The steps in this procedure are as follows:
1.
The metal framework is constructed on a cast produced by anatomic
impression procedure using alginate impression material.
2. Fabricate custom trays on the framework over the muco-osseous denture
supporting areas. Be certain that the primary supporting areas are covered (e.g.
buccal shelf)

3. Cut the cast in correspondence with the internal finish
line of the framework or slightly closer to the abutment
teeth

5. Box the impression, and pour the altered cast.
4. Seat the framework with the impression onto the sectioned
cast

ADDITION OF TOOTH
TO THE DENTURE

FIXED VERSUS REMOVABLE
PARTIAL DENTURE
(comparison in preference)
•

Indications for removable
partial denture
1-
Where vertical support from the
edentulous ridge is needed .
e.g. in the absence of a distal abutment.
e.g. to ensure stability with a
long edentulous space
2-
Where resistance to lateral movement is
needed from contra-lateral teeth and soft
tissues.


3-
Inadequate periodontal support
The abutment teeth that exhibit reduced periodontal
support because of periodontal disease that would
benefit from cross-arch stabilization.

4-
considerable bone loss in the visible anterior
region.

6-
Unusually Sound Abutment Teeth
• Sometimes the reasoning for making a
removable restoration is the desire to see
sound teeth preserved in their natural state
and not prepared for restorations.

preferance of Fixed Restorations:
1-Tooth-Bounded Edentulous Regions

2-Anterior modification spaces
3-Replacement of unilaterally missing molars (shortened
dental arch)
