Fabricating swinglock removable partial denture frameworks.

Abstract

A technique has been described which outlines the relief of the master cast and the wax-up and positioning of the attachments for swinglock removable partial denture frameworks. The advantages of the technique are that it reduces the bulk of the casting, provides an effective method of waxing and positioning the attachments, and reduces the amount of time needed for wax-up.

Racial norms: esthetic and prosthodontic implications.

A review of the orthodontic literature reveals that different races have different cephalometric norms. This has great implications in the placement and arrangement of teeth and in the evaluation of esthetics in people of dissimilar ethnic origins. In the diverse American society, prosthodontists and restorative dentists need to be concerned with the phylogenetic characteristics of their patients. The resultant esthetic differences can have significant importance in the function and design of prostheses.
