Study Notes
Bracing in Partial Dentures
- Bracing can be provided from the mucosa by covering the lateral slope of the ridge and the lateral slope of the palate.
- Indirect retainer is achieved through the use of specific components, including:
- Continuous bar
- Occlusal rest
- Cingulum rest
- Incisal rest
- Anterior palatal bar
- Posterior palatal bar
Retention in Partial Dentures
- Retention in partial dentures relies on mechanical units, including:
- Direct retainer (for tooth-borne RPD and tooth-tissue borne RPD)
- Indirect retainer
