INTRODUCTION
OBJECTIVES
1.To create an arrangement of the opposing teeth which is in harmony with the mandibular movements.
2. To provide the patient with a masticating mechanism that is at the same time efficient, comfortable and aesthetically pleasing.
3.Need to distribute the functional forces between the remaining natural teeth and the residual ridge to withstand stress
Miller and Grasso, Removable Partial Prosthodontics; 2nd edition, pg215
It may provide information which is difficult to obtain by intraoral examination
Problems such as…..
1. Interarch distance - enlarged maxillary
tuberosity….. -moderate to severe
undercuts….
EVALUATION OF DIAGNOSTIC CAST

2. Occlusal plane:
- Irregular due to extrusion….
- Several treatment options….

JAW RELATION RECORDS
VERTICAL DIMENSION OF OCCLUSION
Stewarts- Clinical Removable Partial Prosthodontics.
It is measured between two arbitrary point marked on the face one above the mouth one below the mouth
Two vertical dimension are commonly recognised
1.Vertical dimension at rest2. Vertical dimension at occlusion
ALTERING THE EXISTING OVD
Normally the OVD of a partially edentulouspatient is provided by the opposing natural teeth contact and it should not be changed
Stewarts- Clinical Removable Partial Prosthodontics.
ALTERING THE EXISTING OVD cont..
1.Symptoms of diminished OVD exist such as.
tired aching muscles,unexplained pain in the head and neck region, shortened nose-chin distance (appearance of premature aging).
2. Excessive Free way Space or ‘over-closure’ of the jaws.
Stewarts- Clinical Removable Partial Prosthodontics.
HOW TO ALTER THE EXISTING OVD
1. Confirm the loss of Vertical dimension by taking history, and the presence of excessive free-way space.
2. Increase the existing OVD temporarily by fabricating an acrylic resin occlusal overlay appliance in maximum intercuspation, ensuring that 4mm of freeway space must
exist.
Stewarts- Clinical Removable Partial Prosthodontics.
HORIZONTAL JAW RELATION
Stewarts- Clinical Removable Partial Prosthodontics.
It is determined after a correct vertical dimension of occlusion is established
There are two horizontal relationships that are of importance in developing occlusion
1. Centric relation
2. Centric occlusion
HORIZONTAL JAW RELATION
What to Record – C.R or C.O
.Centric Occlusion should be recorded whenever a patient requiring a partial denture has cusps on remaining natural teeth that can guide the mandible back to this position,
HORIZONTAL JAW RELATION
C.R should be recorded, e.g., for distal extension RPD, or when the opposing arch is edentulous.
ESTABLISHING OCCLUSAL RELATIONSHIP
5 methods can be used for establishing occlusal relationship in removable partial denture fabrication
1.Direct apposition of cast
2. Interocclusal records with posterior teeth remaining
3.Occlusal relation using occlusion rims on record bases
4.Jaw relation made entirely on occlusion rims
5.Functionally generated path
McCracken’s- Removable Partial Prosthodontics.
DIRECT APPOSITION OF CAST
Used when there are sufficient opposing teeth that remain in contact.
This method at the best can perpetuate the existing vertical dimension.
McCracken’s- Removable Partial Prosthodontics.
Any existing occlusal discrepancy present between the natural dentition
INTEROCCLUSAL RECORDS WITH POSTERIOR TEETH REMAINING
Used when sufficient natural teeth are remaining but the cast cannot be occluded by hand articulation
McCracken’s- Removable Partial Prosthodontics.
Interocclusal records have to be used to records the jaw relation
Usually softened, metal-reinforced wafer of baseplate or set up wax in used
OCCLUSAL RELATION USING OCCLUSION RIMS ON RECORD BASES
Used when on or more distal extension areas are present
Tooth supported edentulous space is large or when opposing teeth do not meet
In this method the missing teeth are replaced by occlusal rims
McCracken’s- Removable Partial Prosthodontics.
FUNCTIONALLY GENERATED PATH
Is based on the theory that the patient is the best articulator for developing the occlusion.
Miller and Grasso, Removable Partial Prosthodontics; 2nd edition, pg215
Using the removable partial denture frameworkas a base, a dynamic recording of the occlusal patterns is generated in thepatient’s mouth under normal functional conditions.
STEPWISE PROCEDUREDenture base has to be fabricated which is stable and which
will support the wax occlusal rim
A film of hard stick wax is placed on the base before the occlusal rims are adjusted
The wax rim then has to be worn by the patient for the next 24hrs including in the night
The occlusal rim has to be in positive contact with the dentition in all excursion so that the functional path of all the cusp are carved in wax
McCracken’s- Removable Partial Prosthodontics.
After 24hrs the occlusal rim is examined, it has to have a continuous gloss, which indicates functional contact of all the cusp.
The completed occlusal registration is now ready for conversion to a occlusal template
The occlusal registration is the boxed with modelling clay after it has been secured on the master cast
Only the wax registration and the vertical stops are left exposed, rest all in poured with dental stone, which
forms the template
McCracken’s- Removable Partial Prosthodontics.
SELECTION OF AN ARTICULATOR
Based on adjustability, articulators are
classified as:
Nonadjustable articulators
1. Kennedy class III
2. Functionally generated path
Semi adjustable articulators
1. Kennedy class I II IV
Highly adjustable articulators
1. Used when extensive occlusal rehabilitation is done
Stewarts- Clinical Removable Partial Prosthodontics
Miller and Grasso, Removable Partial Prosthodontics; 2nd edition, pg215
MOUNTING THE CAST ON ARTICULATOR
The cast have to be transferred to the articulators
ARBITARY MOUNTING
MOUNTING USING FACE
BOW
ARBITARY MOUNTING OF CAST
The cast are properly related to each other in horizontal and vertical planes
They are secured using stick wax
Then they are mounted in the centre of the articulator, midline of the cast aligns with the incisal pin and occlusal plane parallel to the bench topMiller and Grasso, Removable Partial Prosthodontics; 2nd edition, pg215
FACE BOW TRANSFER
It relates the maxillary cast to the opening and closing axis of the articulator
It also places the maxillary cast in the correct horizontal plane.
Facebow should be compatible with the chosen articulator.

SELECTION OF DENTURE TEETH
Choice of materials
1. Acrylic resin denture teeth
2. Porcelain denture teeth, .In more recent years 1. Glass ceramics and2. Composite materials.
John R. Ivanhoe , Kevin D. Plummer; Removable partial denture occlusion; Dent Clin N Am 48 (2004) 667–683
ACRYLIC RESIN DENTURE TEETH
1. Resilient,
2. Wear-resistant,
3. Natural-sounding in function, and
4. Aesthetic
5. They are easy to adjust, can be recontoured when necessary,
6. Polished with little effort
1. low abrasion resistance
2. Proper function of the occlusal relationships must be checked more frequently when acrylic resin teeth are used
ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES
John R. Ivanhoe , Kevin D. Plummer; Removable partial denture occlusion; Dent Clin N Am 48 (2004) 667–683
PORCELAIN DENTURE TEETH
1. High abrasion resistance
2. Exhibit minimal wear
3. Highly Aesthetic
4. match the porcelains used for fixed restorations
1. Sound unnatural to the patient
2. Brittle
3. Chip or crack,
4. Difficult to adjust, recontour, and polish
ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES

ARRANGMENT OF PROSTHETIC TEETH
ANTERIOR TEETH
1. Should be selected using the manufactures shade guide
2. Should be done as quick as possible
3. Natural light should be used

ARRANGMENT OF PROSTHETIC TEETH cont...
MOLD
Each mold exhibits a different shape and size and also different surface characteristics
Stewarts- Clinical Removable Partial Prosthodontics
Mold selection is based on two important factors:1) The space that has been created by tooth loss. - If single tooth is replaced…. - If multiple anterior teeth are replaced…..
HOUSE technique
Stewarts- Clinical Removable Partial Prosthodontics
2) Overall form or shape of the teeth.
Stewarts- Clinical Removable Partial Prosthodontics
ARRANGMENT OF PROSTHETIC TEETH
POSTERIOR TEETH
1. They should fit into the edentulous spaces
2. But be in harmony with the natural existing occlusion also
Stewarts- Clinical Removable Partial Prosthodontics
POSITION OF NATURAL TEETH
It is desirable to place artificial denture teeth in close proximity to the original position of the natural teeth..
Landmarks for the anterior teeth
1.Incisive papilla
2.Labial vestibule

Landmarks for the occlusal plane
3. Commissures of the lips
2. Retromolar pad
1. Parotid papilla
Landmarks for the posterior teeth
1.Maxillary tuberosity
2.Retromolar pads

1.If a physiologic state exists, maintain the patient’s maximum intercuspal position.
2.Bilateral simultaneous contacts of the opposing anterior and posterior teeth should be established in restored occlusion
3. Do not alter a patient’s existing occlusal scheme in lateral movement unless such alterations are needed to correct a nonphysiologic condition.
John R. Ivanhoe , Kevin D. Plummer; Removable partial denture occlusion; Dent Clin N Am 48 (2004) 667–683
PRELIMINARY OBJECTIVES FOR ESTABLISHING AN OCCLUSAL SCHEME
4. If the restoration must re-establish lateral guidance, canine- protected articulation is preferable when the remaining natural canines are present and not periodontally compromised.
5.Establish group function or a unilateral balanced articulation for patients with missing canines being replaced by a removable prosthesis or periodontally compromised canines that will be maintained
John R. Ivanhoe , Kevin D. Plummer; Removable partial denture occlusion; Dent Clin N Am 48 (2004) 667–683
6.Do not establish nonworking contacts on remaining natural teeth unless these teeth are opposed by a complete denture for which bilateral balanced articulation is desirable
7.When there are healthy remaining natural anterior teeth, posterior tooth contact during the protrusive movement is not desirable
John R. Ivanhoe , Kevin D. Plummer; Removable partial denture occlusion; Dent Clin N Am 48 (2004) 667–683
DETERMINING THE OCCLUSAL SCHEME
The number and positions of the remaining natural teeth in both the arch in which a removable partial denture is being fabricated and the opposing arch determine the necessary occlusal scheme.
John R. Ivanhoe , Kevin D. Plummer; Removable partial denture occlusion; Dent Clin N Am 48 (2004) 667–683
Class III removable partial denture
If the existing occlusion is physiologically healthy, the patient is restored to the existing occlusal scheme
A group function articulation is recommended if the patient’s natural canine is missing or periodontally compromised
A balanced articulation is recommended if the restoration is to oppose a complete denture
John R. Ivanhoe , Kevin D. Plummer; Removable partial denture occlusion; Dent Clin N Am 48 (2004) 667–683
Class II removable partial denture
Group function articulation should be avoided when there are no remaining premolars.
Except when opposing a complete denture, a balanced articulation should be avoided to prevent nonworking contacts on natural teeth.
John R. Ivanhoe , Kevin D. Plummer; Removable partial denture occlusion; Dent Clin N Am 48 (2004) 667–683
Balanced articulation is recommended for patients for whom canine-protected articulation is not possible to provide bilateral occlusal contacts for increased denture stability.
Class I removable partial denture
John R. Ivanhoe , Kevin D. Plummer; Removable partial denture occlusion; Dent Clin N Am 48 (2004) 667–683
Class IV removable partial denture
During excursive movements the anterior artificial teeth should either disocclude or have passive occlusal contact.
John R. Ivanhoe , Kevin D. Plummer; Removable partial denture occlusion; Dent Clin N Am 48 (2004) 667–683
A balanced articulation is recommended if the restoration is to oppose a complete denture
