A removable partial denture (RPD) for the restoration of maxillary defects must incorporate sound design principles to reduce potential damage to the abutment teeth and supporting periodontal tissue, while enabling acceptable functional levels of speech, mastication, and deglutition. These functional demands and potential stresses on the abutment teeth may exceed those encountered by patients without maxillary defects. This article describes the indications and design considerations for a hybrid gate design framework that incorporates both conventional cast direct retainers and the gate design concept in the same framework.
This paper's objective is to describe a simple, economical and fast method to replace a single tooth. Utilizing an indirectly fabricated composite resin framework reinforced with polyethylene fiber and the existing tooth as pontic. This tooth can be the natural tooth or the restorative crown. In addition, this particular design allows for exact repositioning of the coronal part of the extracted tooth in its original intra-oral 3-dimensional position. This chairside technique does not require laboratory involvement.
