  • Title: Design sequence and mouth preparation for the removable partial denture.
    Author: Phillips RJ.
    Journal: J Calif Dent Assoc; 1997 May; 25(5):363-70. PubMed ID: 9452666.
    Abstract:
    This article discusses the procedure for designing the "best" removable partial denture. The best design will preserve the abutment teeth and the edentulous ridge. The restorative dentist's task in making an RPD is not to try to maintain function as it had been prior to tooth loss but rather to preserve what remains of the oral mechanism.
