    Partial Dentures Requirements

    • Two common requirements for all partial dentures: support and retention

    Support in Partial Dentures

    • Mucosa support allows varying degrees of displacement
    • Amount of displacement in mucosa support is determined by the fit of the denture base
    • Primary purpose of support for all partial dentures is to distribute the loads of the denture to the underlying tissues
    • Factor affecting the amount of displacement in mucosa support is the quality of the mucosa
    • Area covered by the denture in mucosa support is determined by the shape and size of the saddle

    Tooth Support

    • Most common way to obtain tooth support for a bounded saddle denture base is through abutment teeth
