Digital Removable Partial Denture Technology : From Design Analysis to Practical Skills
Introduces esthetic clasp as an innovative method that improves the appearance of clasps by changing the clasp design. It details the concept of esthetic clasp, the classification of esthetic clasp design methods, the clinical pathway of esthetic clasp techniques, many selected cases, and the logos of different kinds of esthetic clasps.
Management of free distal extension by partial prosthesis
The study highlights that removable partial dentures remain a fundamental treatment option for managing partial edentulism, especially when implants or fixed prostheses are not feasible. Successful outcomes depend on accurate diagnosis, thorough oral preparation, sound prosthesis design, continuous patient education, and regular follow-up.
Kratochvil's Fundamentals of Removable Partial Dentures
Provides an overview of the RPD design philosophy developed by Prof F. J. Kratochvil. His'RPI system'—a clasp assembly consisting of a rest, a proximal plate, and an I-bar retainer—changed how clinicians approach partial denture design. Topics in this book include RPD components and functions, design sequences for maxillary and mandibular RPDs, and techniques for surveying and determining the most advantageous treatment position. The authors provide illustrations of clinical cases throughout the book as well as an illustrated glossary of prosthodontic terminology. This book will prepare students and general practitioners to design and fabricate a biomechanically sound RPD framework for just about any dental configuration they encounter.
Brudvik's advanced removable partial dentures
Features hundreds of new photographs and drawings to explain the intricacies of complex RPDs. The function of each element of an RPD is described in isolation and by class, and the clinical and laboratory steps of RPD design and creation are reviewed, followed by discussions of various types of prostheses and when/how to use them. This technical manual is aimed at experienced practitioners but still presents the information in a neat, organized, and easy-to-follow manner.
