Today • AM - Seminar – Lab 3128 – Need Surveyor • Get Casts, Typodonts & Marking Sheets at front • Presentations and Videos • Survey Class I & II Casts (w/o preps) • Tripod Casts • Get Mannikin Heads & Mounts ready for PM • PM - Clinic • Prepare guiding planes on Class I & II Typodonts (last sheet Course Sched) • Formative • Marking sheets
Undercut = Infrabulge • Suprabulge Definitions • Height of contour
Rule: Retentive tip should usually be designed to be placed in the gingival 1/3
Path of Insertion • Path that the prosthesis is • Placed/removed • Usually a single path
Advantages of a Single Path of Insertion • Equalizes retention
Advantages of a Single Path of Insertion • Bracing and Cross-arch Stabilization
Advantages of a Single Path of Insertion • Minimizes torque on abutments
Advantages of a Single Path of Insertion • Allows removal without encountering interferences
Advantages of a Single Path of Insertion • Directs forces along long axes of teeth
Advantages of a Single Path of Insertion • Provides frictional retention
Selecting a Single Path of Insertion • Use a dental surveyor to • Select path • Prepare guiding planes
Movies: Parts of a SurveyorSurveying
Proximal Plates • Bracing Arms • Rigid portions of Retentive Arms Guiding Plane Preparation • Where rigid components contact abutments
Altering Path of Insertion • Proximal surfaces similar undercuts • Retentive areas similar undercuts
Selecting a Path of Insertion • Modify tilt if necessary • Soft tissue interferences
Selecting a Path of Insertion • Modify tilt if necessary • Esthetics
Once Path Selected • Instructor: • Approves path • Demo: • Mark heights of contour with carbon marker • Tripod
Optimal Path of Insertion • Retentive undercuts equalized • Retentive arm has a different path of escapement than guiding plane, so it must flex during removal
Optimal Path of Insertion • Retentive undercuts equalized • Ideally, retentive arms should oppose each other on opposite sides of the arch
Optimal Path of Insertion • Minimize severe tooth & soft tissue interferences
Optimal Path of Insertion • Esthetics • Minimize display of clasps, metal components
Optimal Path of Insertion • Prepare Guiding Planes • Flat surfaces parallel to path of insertion • Control & limit movement of RPD • Initial contacts for RPD
Effectiveness of Guideplanes • Most effective when: • Prepared on several teeth • Cover a large surface area

Preparing Guiding Planes • Select path of insertion • Design Partial Denture * • Select number & position of guiding planes • Prepare guiding planes

Use Surveyor to Align Bur Intraorally When Preparing Guide Planes Cast should be on Surveyor Close to Operator to Compare Orientation of Analyzing Rod and Bur to the Tooth
Burs 8837K-014 • Long Cylindrical Carbide or Diamond (8837K 014)
Axial Surface Already Parallel to Path of Insertion • NO Preparation !
Polish Prepared Surfaces • Rubber wheels or points
Effects of Guiding Planes On Retention & Stability • Maintains Retention
Effects of Guiding Planes On Retention & Stability • Minimizes Need for Retention
Effects of Guiding Planes On Retention & Stability • Stabilizing Teeth
