  • Title: Revisiting the principles of partial denture design.
    Author: Stilwell C.
    Journal: Dent Update; 2010 Dec; 37(10):682-4, 686-8, 690. PubMed ID: 21290905.
    Abstract:
    UNLABELLED: Dentists may find partial denture design difficult. This is often due to lack of educational experience. Removable partial dentures (RPDs) are one-off prosthodontic solutions that require proper assessment, planning and preparation, combined with effective design. This article revisits the principles of RPD design. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: One in six people in Britain have some form of RPD. Many of these are unworn. For future well-being of patients, improvement in RPD provision is essential.
