- Question
- Answer
- Side 3

- What is prosthodontics?
- Restoration of natural teeth and/or the replacement of missing teeth and contiguous oral and maxillofacial tissues w/artificial substitutes
- What are the branches of prosthodontics?
- 1. Fixed
  2. Removable
  3. Maxillofacial
- What is the branch of prosthodontics concerned w/the replacement and/or restoration of teeth by artificial substitutes that are not readily removed from the mouth
- Fixed prosthodontics
- What are 4 examples of fixed prosthodontics?
- 1. Partial veneer
  2. Single crown
  3. Fixed partial denture
  4. Implant restoration
- What are some restorations that restore all but one coronal surface of a tooth?
- 1. 3/4 crown
  2. proximal 1/2 crown
  3. 7/8 crown
  4. inlay
  5. onlay
- What is a tooth portion of a tooth, or that portion of a dental implant that serves to support and/or retain a prosthesis
- Abutment
  (synonomous with the prep)
- What is the junction of the cut and uncut portion of the prepared tooth, referred to as
- Finish Line
- What is that portion of a fixed partial denture that unites the abutment to the remainder of the restoration
- Retainer
  (casting or restoration)
- What is the circumferential terminal end of the restoration?
- Margin of the restoration
- What is an artificial tooth on a fixed partial denture that replaces a missing natural tooth, restores its functions, and fills the edentulous space?
- Pontic
- What is the portion of the fixed partial denture that unites the retainer and the pontic?
- Connector
- What governs tooth preparations?
- 1. Preservation of tooth structure
  2. Retention and resistance form
  3. Structural durability of the restoration
  4. Marginal integrity
  5. Preservation of the periodontium
- What term refers to preventing removal of the restoration along the long axis of the tooth preparation & essential element is two opposing vertical surfaces in the same preparation
- Retention
- What prevents dislogement of the restoration by forces directed in an apical or oblique direction and prevents any movement of the restoration under occlusal forces?
- Resistance
- What is it called when the axial wall must converge toward the occlusal (6-16 degrees)
- Taper
- What term defines:
  Retention is improved when there is only one path of insertion for that restoration
  Limits displacement in a horizontal or torque force
  (grooves or proximal box)
- Freedom of displacement
- What is vital to both retention and resistance form
  Relates to the O/G dimension of the preparation
  Restoration success is governed by a force capable of iinterfering with the arc of the casting pivoting about a point along the opposite side of the preparation
- Length
- What is the imaginary line along which the restoration will be placed onto or removed from the preparation
  Viewed with one eye from a distance of 12 inches
- Path of insertion
- Relates to the amount of restorative material necessary for that restoration to sustain occlusal loads and patient function
  Limited to the confines of the tooth preparation
- Structural durability
- Intimate adaptation of the finish line of the prepared tooth with the margin of the restoration
  Configurations: Chamfer, shoulder
- Marginal Integrity
- Definitive restoration should not interfere with periodontal health
  Finish line placement should be in a cleansable region
- Preservation of the periodontium
- What perspective should the prep be viewed from when you are aligning your path of insertion?
- Single eye vision from the MD & FL perspectives
