|
Mid-Palatal Papillary Hyperplasia caused by an ill fiting RPD is most likely due to |
Inadequate initial contact with the palatal tissue A new denture is needed Warty appearance of inflammation
|
|
Ante's Law when used to evaulate potential abutments for fixed bridges uses what as a guide? |
The Periodontal surface area of the abutment teeth |
|

Patient presents with existing Max CD and Mand RPD,. Patient exhibits an Angular Cheilitis condition in the commisure area of her lips. Whats the likely cause of the condition? |
Vertical dimension of occlusion too far closed |
|
Generally speaking, do Class 3 and 4 need Indirect Retainers? |
No, there is no distal extension base that can lift away from the supported tissues |
|
Why might a Class 4 need Indirect Retention? |
You have a Reverse Extension Base Area, #2 and #15 may act as IR's to prevent rotation |
|
The Greater the distance b/w the 2 points of retention the_____________ the prosthesis |
More Stable |

|
|
What are some Facing Contraindications? |
Large Bony Defects where the facings would be extremely long Large edentulous span Where you anticipate that you would need a reline in the future |
