Force transmission and retentive capabilities utilizing labial and palatal I‐bar partial dentures

Abstract: A maxillary photoelastic model was constructed to determine the retention and force transmission characteristics of a bilateral distal extension base partial denture. Comparisons were made using palatal and labial I-bars. It was shown that there were no significant differences in retention and force transmission between palatal and labial I-bars. From a stress and retention standpoint, it may be concluded that the use of palatal I-bars is a viable alternative to the labial I-bars, especially where aesthetics i… Show more

“…However, in dentistry, because of its inherent flexibility, it has been used primarily for flexible mucosa born partial dentures. Such polymers do not have sufficient strength to be used as occlusal rest seats and they would not maintain vertical dimension when used in direct occlusal forces, but the studies were controversial in this this regard (6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14).…”

“…For this purpose, researchers have been investigating alternative materials in order to overcome the unaesthetic appearance of alloy clasps especially when they are placed on the anterior teeth. The methods to overcome this aesthetic dilemma have included, covering clasps with tooth-colored resin (3,5), the use of lingually positioned clasps (6,7), and the engagement of mesial rather than distal undercuts (8).…”

“…The most common alloys used for such clasps are cobalt-chromium alloys and gold alloys, but they can be unsightly 2) . Various methods, such as clasps painted with tooth-colored resin 3,4) , lingually or gingivally positioned clasps 5,6) , and mesial rather than distal undercuts 7) , have been employed in order to solve these problems. While these methods are effective to some extent, it has not yet been possible to develop esthetically ideal dental clasps.…”

“…The main purpose of RPDs or any dental prosthesis is to maintain oral function by restoring missing teeth and surrounding tissues while maintaining the patient’s appearance, comfort, and health [ 3 ]. This point enhances the demand for a material that is biocompatible, aesthetic and has adequate strength when used for RPD fabrication [ 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 ].…”
