Clasp of partial dentures Design

Direct associates may appear in assorted Clasp of partial dentures designs:

Cast circumferential brooch (suprabulge)

Akers'

Half and half

Back-action

Ring clasp

Wrought wire clasp

Roach brooch (infrabulge)

I-bar

T-bar

Y-bar

7-bar

Both casting circumferential and wrought wire clasps are suprabulge clasps, in that they appoint an attenuate on the tooth by basic chaplet to the acme of contour, while Roach clasps are infrabulge clasps and appoint undercuts by abutting from the gingival.

In accession there are a brace of specific theories which cover the brooch design:

RPI: mesial rest, distolingual adviser plate, I-bar

Described by Kratochvil in 1963 and adapted by Kroll in 1973

An analogy of the RPI architecture function

RPA: mesial rest, distolingual adviser plate, Akers' clasp-style absorptive arm

RPC: mesial rest, distolingual adviser plate, added blazon of casting circumferential clasp

So called in acknowledgment to the Removable partial dentures Philosophy alien by Kratochvil and Kroll

  1. Over time, people's teeth tend to naturally deteriorate. When a tooth has deteriorated substantially, it often needs to be extracted; and when multiple teeth are extracted, dentures may be the most appropriate solution. Dentures can create a natural and healthy looking set of teeth. In addition, a properly fitting set of dentures can greatly enhance your smile and sense of self-esteem.
