  1. REMOVABLE PARTIAL DENTURES

  2. TERMINOLOGY Prosthesis Is an artificial replacement of an absent art of the human body Dentulous Patients Patients having a complete set of natural teeth Edentulous Patients Patients having all their teeth missing

  3. Edentulous Patients COMPLETE DENTURE

  4. Partially Edentulous Patients • Patients having one or more but not their entire natural teeth missing.

  5. Removable Partial Denture = R.P.D Fixed bridge= F.P.D Implant

  6. Fixed bridge Removable Partial Denture, R.P.D Implant

  7. Removable Partial Denture (RPD) • Removable dental prosthesis (appliance) replacing one or more natural teeth and associated oral structures

  8. Free End Edentulous Area (Distal extension edentulous area):An edentulous area, which has an abutment tooth on one side only Bounded Edentulous Area:An edentulous area, which has an abutment tooth on each end

  9. Abutment:A tooth, a portion of a tooth, or that portion of a dental implant that serves to support and/or retain prosthesis

  10. INDICATIONS FOR REMOVABLE PARTIAL DENTURES 1- No abutment tooth posterior to edentulous space (Free end edentulous area)

  11. INDICATIONS FOR REMOVABLE PARTIAL DENTURES 2- Long edentulous bounded span, too extensive for fixed restoration

  12. INDICATIONS FOR REMOVABLE PARTIAL DENTURES 3- Periodontally weak teeth not sufficiently sound to support fixed- partial denture.

  13. Periodontally weak teeth

  14. Free end edentulous area Periodontally weak teeth

  15. 4- With excessive loss of residual bone, the use of labial flange or need to restore lost tissues.

  16. Excessive loss of residual bone

  17. With excessive loss of residual bone, space is seen under the pontic.

  18. INDICATIONS FOR REMOVABLE PARTIAL DENTURES 5- After recent extraction, usually done only to improve esthetics, or for patient satisfaction. 6- Need of bilateral bracing (cross arch stabilization) 7- Young age (less than 17 years).

  19. Young Old Young age (less than 17 years) has a high pulp horn

  20. 7- Enhancing esthetics in anterior region, by the use of translucent artificial teeth instead of dull fixed partial denture pontic. 8-Economic considerations, attitude and desire of the patient.

  21. Enhancing esthetics in anterior region, by the use of translucent artificial teeth instead of dull fixed partial denture pontic

  22. Preservation of the Remaining Tissues OBJECTIVES OF REMOVABLE PARTIAL DENTURES A- Preservation of the health of the remaining teeth. B- Prevention of muscles and TMJ Dysfunction. C-Preservation of the residual ridge. D- Preservation of the tongue contour and space.

  23. Replacement of lost teeth prevents the migration of teeth into the edentulous area following the loss of the natural dentition

  24. Migration of teeth into the edentulous area following the loss of the natural

  25. Change the pattern of mandibular closure as a result of loss of some teeth

  26. Normal masticatory cycle

  27. OBJECTIVES OF REMOVABLE PARTIAL DENTURES Restore the Continuity of the Dental Archto Improve Masticatory Function

  28. OBJECTIVES OF REMOVABLE PARTIAL DENTURES Improvement of Esthetics, and Providing Support to the Paraoral Muscles, Lips and Cheeks

  29. OBJECTIVES OF REMOVABLE PARTIAL DENTURES Restoration of Impaired speech

  30. HAZARDS OF IMPROPERLY DESIGNED PARTIAL DENTURES Stagnation of foodcauses tooth decay Induce stresses on abutment teeth and tissues PM destruction Inflammation Bone resorption Improper occlusion cause T.M.J. disorders.

  31. Tooth decay Inflammatory changes of soft tissues HAZARDS OF IMPROPERLY DESIGNED PARTIAL DENTURES

  32. Ill fitting denture Inflammation, ulceration ,gingival recession, bone resorption Sensitivity from acryl

  33. ADVANTAGES OF REMOVABLE PARTIAL DENTURE OVER FIXED PARTIAL DENTURE 1- RPD constructed for any case whilst FPD are confined to short spans bounded by healthy teeth and with a normal occlusion. 2- Cheaper than fixed partial denture 3- They are more easily cleaned 4- They are more easily repaired 5- No tooth reduction is required
