Fixed partial dentures transmit forces through the abutments to the periodontium. Failures are due to poor engineering, the use of improper materials, inadequate tooth preparation, and faulty fabrication. Of particular concern to prosthodontist is the selection of teeth for abutments. They must recognize the forces developed by the oral mechanism, and resistance.
Successful selection of abutments for fixed partial dentures requires sensitive diagnostic ability. Thorough knowledge of anatomy, ceramics, the chemistry and physics of dental materials, metallurgy, Periodontics, phonetics, physiology, radiology and the mechanics of oral function is fundamental.

Francesca Gottschalk - How can education support child empowerment.pptxEduSkills OECD
Francesca Gottschalk from the OECD’s Centre for Educational Research and Innovation presents at the Ask an Expert Webinar: How can education support child empowerment?
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

1. Retainers in RPD
INDIAN DENTAL ACADEMY
Leader in continuing dental education
www.indiandentalacademy.com
www.indiandentalacademy.com
2. Retention can be defined as that
quality inherent in a prosthesis that
resists the vertical forces of
dislodgement.
Or
It is the resistance to removal from
vertical forces which tend to dislodge
prosthesis away from its foundation.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
3. Retention for removable partial denture is
achieved primarily by
Mechanical means (Direct & indirect
retainers)
Harnessing the patient’s muscular control
acting through polished surfaces of denture
Using inherent physical forces which arise
from coverage of mucosa by the denture
www.indiandentalacademy.com
4. Movement of partial denture
Distal extension partial
denture can move
along three axis.
Rotation about an axis
through the most
posterior abutments,
www.indiandentalacademy.com
5. Movement of partial denture
Rotation about a
longitudinal axis
as the distal
extension base
moves in a
rotary direction
about the
residual ridge.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
6. Movement of partial denture
Rotation about
an imaginary
vertical axis
near the centre
of the dental
arch.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
9. Intracoronal retainers
Advantage
Batter esthetics
Better vertical support trough a rest seat
located more favorably in relation to
horizontal axis of the abutment tooth
Horizontal stabilization is similar to that of an
internal rest
www.indiandentalacademy.com
10. Intracoronal retainers
Disadvantages
Require prepared abutments and castings
Require somewhat complicated clinical and
laboratory procedures
They eventually wear with resulting loss in retention
Difficult to repair and replace
Effective in proportion to their length and are
therefore least effective on short teeth
Difficult to place completely within the circumference
of an abutment tooth
More expensive
www.indiandentalacademy.com
13. Amount of retention
Size of angle of cervical convergence
How far clasp arm is place in cervical
convergence
Flexibility of clasp arm
It’s length
It’s relative diameter
It’s cross-sectional form
Material of clasp arm
www.indiandentalacademy.com
15. Angle of cervical convergence
Area cervical to height of contour
Amount of convergence – relative to
path of placement and removal
A definitive path of placement is
possible- guiding planes.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
16. How far clasp arm is place in
cervical convergence
Relative uniformity of retention
Location of clasp arm in relation to angle of
cervical convergence, not in relation to
height of contour.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
17. Flexibility of clasp arm
Length α Flexibility
Diameter 1/ α Flexibility
www.indiandentalacademy.com
18. Flexibility of clasp arm
Cross sectional form
Half round form →Unidirectional
Round form →universal
Material of clasp: Wrought wire > cast
gold > chrome alloys
www.indiandentalacademy.com
19. Stabilizing- reciprocal cast clasp
arm
It should be rigid
It should taper in one dimension only
It’s average diameter must be greater then
retentive arm
www.indiandentalacademy.com
20. REQUIREMENTS OF
CLASP DESIGN
Retention
Stability
Support
Reciprocation
Encirclement
Passivity
www.indiandentalacademy.com
21. Basic principles of clasp
design
More than 180° of the greatest
circumference of the crown of the
tooth must be included
Continuous contact
Three widely separated area
Occusal rest must be designed
Each retentive terminal must
oppose a reciprocal component.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
22. Basic principles of clasp
design
Positive guiding planes
Retentive clasps should be bilaterally
opposed
Path of escapement of each
retentive clasp must be other then
parallel to path of removal of the
prosthesis.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
23. Basic principles of clasp
design
Amount of retention should always be minimum
necessary
Clasp retainer should not transmit off-vertical forces
to the abutment tooth.
Reciprocal element →at the junction of gingival and
middle thirds
Terminal end or retentive arm →Gingival third
www.indiandentalacademy.com
24. Type of clasps
Circumferential clasp
Ring clasp
Embrasure clasp
Multiple clasp
Half- and –half clasp
Reverse action clasp
Bar clasp or RPI clasp
www.indiandentalacademy.com
25. Circumferential clasp
This clasp consists of occlusal rest & a
buccal and lingual arm originating from
a common body
www.indiandentalacademy.com
26. Circumferential clasp
Most logical clasp for tooth supported partial
dentures because of excellent support,
bracing and retentive qualities
Can be used in a wide variety of situations
www.indiandentalacademy.com
27. Circumferential clasp
Disadvantages
More tooth coverage
It’s occlusal approach may increase the width of
occlusal surface of the tooth
More metal may be displayed than bar clasp
It’s half round form prevents to increase or decrease
retention
www.indiandentalacademy.com
28. Ring clasp
Encircles nearly all of a tooth from it’s point of origin
Indications: Tipped molars were a proximal undercut
cannot be approached by any other means
www.indiandentalacademy.com
30. Multiple clasp
Simply two opposing circumferential
clasps joined at the terminal end of the
two reciprocal arms
www.indiandentalacademy.com
31. Half- and –half clasp
It consists of a circumferential
retentive arm arising from one
direction and reciprocal arm
arising from another
The second arm must arise from
a second minor connector and is
with or without occlusal rest
www.indiandentalacademy.com
32. Reverse-action clasp
When retentive undercut is adjacent to occusal rest
Bar clasp cannot be used because of soft tissue
undercut
Ring clasp cannot be used due to lingual undercut
www.indiandentalacademy.com
33. Bar clasp
The bar clasps approach the
undercut or retentive area on
the tooth from a gingival
direction
Flexibility of bar clasp → taper
and length of approach arm
www.indiandentalacademy.com
34. Bar clasp
DISADVANTAGES
Greater tendency to trap food debris
Does not contribute as much to
bracing and stabilization as most
circumferential clasps do
www.indiandentalacademy.com
40. Combination clasp
It is a circumferential clasp, but bar
clasp may be used
wrought wire retentive clasp arm and a
cast reciprocal clasp arm
If high heat chrome alloy is used, the
wrought wire must be soldered to the
completed framework
www.indiandentalacademy.com
42. How to select a clasp design
It’s flexibility
Stabilization for horizontal & rotational
forces
Sufficient rigidity
Applicable to malposed or rotated tooth
Presence or absence of tissue undercut
www.indiandentalacademy.com
43. How to select a clasp design
Clasp terminal is adjustable or not
Area to be covered by clasp
Effect on width of occlusal table
Can it be replaced.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
44. Indirect Retainers
Restrict the movement of denture base away from
basal seat, as it tend to rotate around one of the
fulcurum line .
Rigid unit of partial denture framework, that are
located on definite rest seats on the opposite side of
fulcurum line from the distal extension base .
Theses component should be placed as far as
possible from fulcurum line for best possible
leverage.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
46. Fulcurum line
This is an imaginary line passing through teeth and component
part of partial denture, around which denture rotates slightly
when subjected to various forces directed towards or away from
the residual ridges.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
47. Indirect retainer - types
Auxiliary occlusal rest
Canine extension from occlusal rest
Canine rest
Linguoplate with rest on terminal ends
Modification areas.
Rugae support
The proximal plate
www.indiandentalacademy.com
48. Factor influencing effectiveness
of indirect retainer
Stable principal occlusal rests
Distance from the fulcrum line
Rigidity of the connectors supporting
the indirect retainer
Effectiveness of the supporting tooth
surface.
www.indiandentalacademy.com
49. CONCLUSION
We can select any of the clasp
designs but that should be
based on sound biological &
mechanical principles of clasp
designs
