Purpose The purpose of the study was to establish the incidence of the prescription of partial denture design by dentists and also to establish the nature of clasp design, if prescribed. Basic procedures Data relating to cobalt-chromium partial dentures were collected from filed slips from a dental laboratory that provided fabricated cobalt-chromium partial dentures for hospital and general dental practitioners. The data collected related to whether or not there was a design for the prosthesis and, also, to the design of clasp (gingivally or occlusally approaching). Main findings Only 39% of slips had evidence of a partial denture design and of those, 41.5% involved the prescription of an inappropriate design of clasp. Principal conclusions The incidence of partial denture design by a group of dentists using a commercial dental laboratory is unacceptably low. Despite evidence advocating the use of gingivally-approaching clasps on teeth anterior to (and including) premolars, there is still an unacceptably high level of the use of occlusally-approaching designs.

Many dental students find the principles of partial denture design difficult to learn. It is also recognized that dentists in general practice within the UK do not always provide sufficient design specification on their laboratory prescription. It therefore seems that confusion about how to come up with a suitable denture design persists after graduation. The aim of the second part of this series relates to design principles of indirect retention, designing the major connector and how to put together all these elements when reviewing the overall design, and how to apply the denture concepts to a case study. This article also discusses recent advances in mucosal-borne partial dentures. CPD/Clinical Relevance: This article revises the principles of partial denture design specifically in relation to mucosal-borne partial dentures.

Full textAbstract:
Improvements in oral health including increased retention of natural teeth have given rise to a partially dentate older population. Replacement of missing natural teeth is important to improve function, aesthetics and quality of life for this patient group. A variety of options are available to replace missing teeth in partially dentate older adults, including fixed, removable and implant retained prostheses. This article will discuss the provision of removable partial dentures including treatment planning and denture design. When planning removable partial dentures, careful attention must be paid to stabilising the patient prior to delivering any prosthesis. Partial dentures should be designed to minimise the potential for plaque accumulation with carefully designed metal based frameworks. Acrylic resin can also be utilised with attention to detail to minimise the risk of damage to delicate supporting tissues. Removable dentures have the advantage that they can be readily added to in the event of further tooth loss which may be particularly relevant for older adults. Partial dentures which optimise support, retention and stability can function very successfully and significantly improve patients’ oral health related quality of life.

Objective: To determine the pattern of partial edentulism and the cast removable dental prosthesis design in relation to the Classes recorded.
 Study Design: Cross-sectional study.
 Place and Duration of Study: Department of Prosthodontics, Armed Forces Institute of Dentistry (AFID), Rawalpindi Pakistan, from Apr to Sep 2021.
 Methodology: A total of 67 partially dentate male and female patients presenting to the Prosthodontics Department requiring partial cast dentures were included in the study. Visual inspection of the master casts and partial denture frameworks was carried out in the laboratory. Kennedy's Classification, modification areas, type of major connector, direct retainer, rest and use of indirect retention were recorded.
 Results: The most prevalent Class of partially dentate arch was Kennedy Class-II in maxilla 10 (45.5%) and Class-I and III in mandible 15 (33.3%) each. Major connectors most frequently encountered were anteroposterior palatal strap (59.1%) and lingual bar (57.8%). Circumferential clasp (35.8%) was the most used retainer type in Classes II and III, whereas RPI was mostly found in Classes I and II (32.1%). Occlusal rests were most commonly used (72.4%). Indirect retention was mostly used in Class-I and II denture frameworks (95.9%).
 Conclusion: The most commonly encountered partial edentulism pattern was Kennedy's Class I and II. Following basic principles of RPD design can help elevate the standards of removable denture treatment.

Full textAbstract:
The provision of removable partial dentures remains a viable treatment modality for many partially dentate patients. Replacing missing anterior teeth with a removable partial denture using a rotational path of insertion provides improved retention and appearance. The use of a rotational path of insertion also provides additional retention for a removable partial denture restoring combined anterior and posterior bounded saddles. Two case reports demonstrate the use of the rotational path of insertion for partial denture design.

The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the effect of removable partial dentures in periodontal abutment teeth in relation to the type of denture support and design of RPD in a five-year worn period. Methods : A total of 64 patients with removable partial dentures (RPDs), participated in this study. It were examined ninety-one RPDs. There were seventy-five RPDs with clasp-retained and sixteenth were RPDs with attachments. There were 28 females and 36 males, aged between 40-64 years, 41 maxillary and 50 mandible RPDs. For each subjects the following data were collected: denture design, denture support, and Kennedy classification. Abutment teeth were assessed for plaque index (PI), calculus index (CI), blending on probing (BOP), probing depth (PD), gingival recession (GR), tooth mobility (TM). Level of significance was set at p<0.05. Results : According to denture support of RPD, BOP, PD, PI, GR, CI and TM-index showed no statistically significant difference. Based on the denture design of RPD’s, BOP, PD, PI, CI, and TM-index proved no statistically significant difference. Except GR-index according to denture design confirmed statistically significant difference in RPD with clasp p<0.01. The higher values of all periodontal parameter as BOP, PD, PI, CI and TM were in patients with RPD’s with claps comparing with RPD’s with attachment. Conclusion : RPD’s with clasp increased level of gingival inflammation in regions covered by the dentures and below the clasp arms in abutment teeth.

Purpose. The purpose of this study was to assess and to compare the technical quality of removable partial dentures (RPDs) servicing both public and private sectors in relation to biomechanically acceptable principles. A convenience sample of work carried out in three commercial dental laboratories servicing both the private and government sectors was used to provide a descriptive study of the laboratory stage of fabrication of RPDs over a 3-month period. Prescription sheets, master casts and completed dentures of 114 cases were evaluated and procedural and design-related information data were captured for each case. The results were disappointing in that not one of the RPDs evaluated conformed to commonly accepted principles. Not one dentist prescribed the design of the denture. Only one cast was surveyed to determine the path of insertion and any undercuts for the placement of clasps, yet 119 clasps were placed. Although 81 rests were used (in only 25 of the dentures), only 11 of those rests were pre-prepared on the teeth. Only 8 of the 95 acrylic-based dentures had any rests, making the remainder entirely mucosa-borne and therefore potentially iatrogenic.The study suggests that principles of RPD design taught during undergraduate training are not being adequately practised in both private and public sectors; and if practised the RPDs are not designed, nor constructed to requirements guided by design principles. Further training of dental technicians and clinicians is clearly indicated, and consideration should be given to a system of clinical audit to identify and prevent the malpractice observed in this study. In addition, ethical and legal guidelines emphasising the roles of clinicians and technicians in the prescription and design of RPDs in South Africa should be developed; and the mandatory comprehensive completion of laboratory work authorisation forms by dental clinicians should be considered.

Background: Oral mucosal lesions commonly develop in denture wearers and are abnormal changes in mucosal colour, texture, ulceration, edema and hyperplasia. They greatly affect the quality of a patient’s life as they have impact on swallowing, speech and mastication with symptoms of burning, pain and irritation. Aim: To find out prevalence, pattern and distribution of most commonly observed oral mucosal lesions in patients wearing removable dentures and their association with age, gender, denture age, nocturnal use and denture hygiene habits. Study design: A cross sectional; observational study Place and duration: Lahore Medical and Dental College from3rd April till3rd July 2021. Methodology: Hundred partially and completely edentulous patients of both genders were included in the study. The age ranged of the patients was between 30 to 80 years. It was a cross sectional observational study. Non probability purposive sampling was used to select the patients. Patient wearing complete or partial dentures in both arches or single arch for at least three months were included. The clinical examination was carried out and depending on clinical appearance of mucosa the diagnosis of denture induced mucosal lesions was made i.e., denture stomatitis, traumatic ulcers and hyperplasia Results: Out of 100 patients 40.0% had no mucosal lesions associated with dentures whereas 60% patients presented with lesions. Out of all the lesions the most frequently reported lesion was the traumatic ulcer 45%, followed by denture induced hyperplasia 10%. Denture stomatitis was 3% and angular cheilitis was least reported in our patients 2%. 36% patients clean their dentures regularly and 64% patients do not clean their dentures or being irregular, Night wearing of the prosthesis was found in 54% patients whereas 46% never wore dentures while sleeping. Conclusion: The prevalence of oral mucosal lesions with complete or partial removable dentures were 60% reported in our patients and traumatic ulcers were the frequently observed lesion. Furthermore, significant association of all lesions with factors like patient’s age, duration of denture use, nocturnal wearing and denture hygiene was found.

Abstract Determination of the incidence of various classes of removable partial dentures (RPDs) including their designs and their comparison with previous studies provide clinically useful information for dental training and continuing education. The purpose of this study is to determine the pattern of partial edentulism, the major connector, clasping, and design of 740 cobalt chromium RPD frameworks constructed for a selected population in Saudi Arabia. RPD framework design information and patient personal data were obtained from the work authorization form and the dental records respectively. The relationship among age, sex, nationality, and various Kennedy classes of the RPDs was determined by chi-square statistical analysis. Results indicate that Kennedy Class III removable partial dentures were the most frequently constructed. Although gender had no significant relationship, age and nationality had statistically significant relationship with the distribution of various Kennedy classes of removable partial dentures. Lingual bars and anterior posterior palatal straps were the most commonly used mandibular and maxillary major connectors. Lingual and palatal plates, however, were more frequently used than any major connectors for distal extension RPDs. Comparison with previous findings confirms the established variation in designing RPDs. The distribution of partially edentulousness revealed the influence of the general pattern of tooth loss, which could be modified by patient's demands and socio-economic status. Practitioners need to avail themselves fully of basic RPD design principles concerning the most commonly encountered classes of RPDs. Citation Sadig WM, Idowu AT.
