This document summarizes information from a lecture on removable partial dentures (RPDs), attachments, and rotational path RPDs. It discusses the advantages and disadvantages of different types of attachments, including ERA attachments, magnetic attachments, and overlay dentures. It also describes rotational path RPDs and lateral rotational path RPDs, highlighting how they can eliminate visible clasps while providing retention and stability. Examples are provided of different RPD designs incorporating various attachments and rotational paths of insertion.

- 11. Attachments - Resilient ERA attachment – Extra-coronal resilient attachment The ERA attachment permits the RPD to be displaced into the edentulous extension area by up to .4 mm

- 22. Attachments - Resilient ERA attachment – Extra-coronal resilient attachment Note the bracing arm through the proximal of #5 and #6. It is non- retentive but keeps the RPD framework from being displaced lingually in this region and with the cingulum rest on #8, keeps the framework centered over the ERA attachment. ERA attachment Cingulum rest Bracing arm Rest
- 23. Attachments - Resilient ERA attachment – Extra-coronal resilient attachment The two central incisors have been splinted together. A cingulum rest is positioned on the mesial side of #8. The ERA attachment is incorporated within the crown of #9. High smile Bracing arm
- 24. Attachments - Resilient ERA attachment – Extra-coronal resilient attachment Note the attachment associated with third molar. This serves as an occlusal stop and has a retentive attachment incorporated within. The ERA should not be used unless a positive occlusal stop is present on the defect side, either from a tooth or an implant .
