Major connector is the component part of removable partial denture that used to connect with other component part of removable partial denture such as minor connector, rest, indirect retainer. The most common of major connector of mandibular arch are lingual bar and lingual plate. Lingual bar is a half-pear shaped steel rod with thickness at inferior border of bar and flat on the tissue side. Advantage of lingual bar are make patients less annoying than others, not trap food particle, not impinge oral tissue when restoration is rotate in function and is placed or removed and not cover oral tissue so easier to cleansing
The idea of leaving roots of natural teeth to support an overdenture is far from new; even in 1856, ledger had described a prosthesis resembling overdenture. (book) or
Once the implant has bonded to the jawbone, your oral surgeon will uncover the implant and place an artificial tooth onto the post.
The socket is the portion of the prosthetic device that interfaces with the patient's limb stump or residual limb. Because the socket transmits forces from the prosthetic limb to the patient's body, it must be meticulously fitted to the residual limb to ensure that it doesn't cause irritation
A clinician should have complete knowledge of anatomic variation of macrostructure and internal and external root canal anatomy. A successful endodontic treatment includes locating the root canal orifice ,chemico mechanical cleaning and shaping of root canals before a dense root canal filling with a hermetic seal. It is known that mandibular first molar can display significant anatomical variations namely as number of roots, number of root canals and morphology.
Occlusion is the relationship between the opposing teeth, when the maxillary mandibular dental arches approaches each other as in chewing or at rest. If this occlusal relationship is not well balanced it can cause pain, tenderness or mobility of the affected teeth, dysfunctions of the masticatory muscles1 and even TMJ problems.2 In spite of the number of studies done over the years, the relationship between occlusion and periodontal disease still remains an area of considerable interest and controversy. The present clinical update try to review the signs and symptoms of trauma from occlusion, and the orthodontic aspects based on previous research works done in this field.: it refers to an occlusion which produces forces that can cause
France) at a level just apical to the cementoenamel junction on the labial aspect of an upper right central incisor with radiographic evidence of pulp canal obliteration.
To compare the retention force value alterations of four different types of implant overdenture attachments over various time intervals.
This is a procedure completed to replace damaged and lost teeth which result from trauma, malformations, and genetic disorders. It went on to discuss regenerative medicine and the types of cells and methods used for this procedure. The document went on to discuss the how the method of tooth regeneration came into being. Also, periodontitis and pulpitis were also discussed. I hope the information will bring about more awareness of the topic. That person would take better care of their teeth and follow up their family history. I also would like to see that more measures are put in place so more research and strategies would be
The term impacted has various meanings to people who attempt to define it. The common definitions of impaction are:
The contour of the marginal ridge as well as overhanging restorations play an important part in survival (Loomans, Roeters, Opdam, & Kuijs, 2008) of the filling and periodontal health (Than, Duguid, & McKendrick, 1982). Rubber dam and matrices placement on the other hand were graded above average (p clinical assessment program. J Dent Educ, 70(5),
Only one tooth had physiologic root resotption at 6, 9, and 12 months. However, no teeth showed pathological signs in the form of pathological root resorption, bone resorption, carious lesion, and furcation involvement at the different follow up periods as seen in table (5) figure (17).

The wire was inserted into the first molar buccal tube with a coil at the other end of the wire to locate accurately the vertical (6-8 mm from the crest of interdental papilla apically) and anterioposterior position (centre of inter radiculer bone) of the mini-screw implant.
A dentist 's has many specialities, that’s why it’s the reason of several years of study. Among the most recognized specialities are the following: oral and maxillofacial surgery, endodontics, oral and maxillofacial pathology, periodontics, oral and maxillofacial radiology. Orthodontics is one of the specialities within dentistry most demanded by patients being its primary objective the alignment, of the teeth to correct the poor disposition of them. The dentists who are dedicated to this branch are concerned with preventing, diagnosing and treating all the conditions that result from poor positioning of the teeth. One of the main consequences that generates the deficient dental position is the bad bite that derives so many other oral problems. Another issue that causes misalignment is the loss of a piece without the corresponding containment treatment. The main technique applie to treat this pathology is the application of fixed or mobile devices, among the first the popular braces today. Orthodontics has several specialities where several studies are unraveled.
