A retrospective clinical study of resin-bonded cingulum rest seats.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the success of the resin-bonded cingulum rest seats (RBCRS) supporting removable partial dentures. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty-six patients who had been treated with RBCRSs were recalled and examined. RESULTS: None of the patients who had RBCRSs placed on their teeth experienced debonding, and none of the teeth showed clinically significant signs of wear to the rest seats. CONCLUSIONS: The use of RBCRSs to support removable partial dentures is a highly successful method of treatment.

The transmandibular implant: prosthodontic treatment considerations.

The transmandibular implant (TMI) is a type of transosteal implant designed for use in the edentulous mandible. The implant is composed of a gold-based alloy. The TMI is a loaded implant in that the prosthesis is supported by the implant. A transitional type of prosthesis, for insertion following surgery can be made either by altering the patient's existing mandibular complete denture or by making a new denture. The completed prosthesis is retained by clips held in the mandibular denture with autopolymerizing acrylic resin. The clips engage Dolder bar segments, which are a part of the implant suprastructure, and provide the necessary retention for the mandibular complete denture.

Template for positioning and angulation of intraosseous implants.

Presurgical planning for submerged implant location and angulation within bone relative to the opposing occlusion is important for the prosthodontist. This information is accurately communicated to the surgeon by using a surgical template. A technique for fabrication of the template is described.

A preextraction profile record.

The preextraction profile record is a means of easily, quickly, and inexpensively recording clinical data prior to extraction of the natural teeth. The record contains a great deal of preextraction information and can be easily stored in the patient's chart. However, the preextraction profile record does not obviate the need for other preextraction records such as radiographs, photographs, and diagnostic casts. The information recorded in preextraction records allows the dentist to have access to and compensate for the progressive changes which occur when the natural teeth are extracted.
