Q

A primary abutment has a C:R of 2:3. Which of the following is a good option for double abutment?

A

b) tooth with 2:3

19
Q

which of the following is the most ideal C:R for an FDP abutment?

a) 1:1
b) 1:2
c) 2:3
d) 2:1

A

c) 2:3

20
Q

true or false: a double abutment with a retentive retainer can be used to replace an over-tapered retainer for primary abutment

A

false. double abutments should not be used because there is poor retention in the primary abutment

21
Q

where does the non-rigid connector attach to on the pier abutment

A

on the distal surface

22
Q

does the pier abutment contain the lock or the key of the non-rigid connector?

A

the lock. the lock goes on the anterior retainer

23
Q

tooth 33 is a pier abutment. which tooth has the slot?

a) 31
b) 32
c) 33
d) 34

A

c) 33

24
Q

tooth 33 is a pier abutment. which tooth has the key?

a) 31
b) 32
c) 33
d) 34

A

d) 34

25
Q

name 2 design options for tilted abutments and list a disadvantage for both

A
  1. non-rigid connector (adv: can change path of insertion, disad: have to prep more on PM)
  2. leave distal surface unpreped (disad: less rigidity)
26
Q

2 “solutions” to limited restorative space

A
  1. adjust opposing occlusal plane

2. metal FDP

27
Q

which canines make good pontics? maxilla or mandible?

A

mandible (compression forces). Maxilla canine has tension forces that lead to failure

28
Q

list the steps for direct technique interim FDP

A
  • impression
  • prep teeth
  • add material in matrix and set
29
Q

list the steps for indirect technique interim FDP

A
  • prep teeth
  • impression
  • model
  • make temp on model
  • mill restoration
30
Q

list the steps for indirect-direct technique interim FDP

A
  • impression
  • model (can also do a wax-up)
  • do conservative prep on model
  • make PMMA temp
  • prep teeth
  • take hollowed PMMA temp and reline it with integrity
31
Q

name 3 advantages of PMMA

A
  • good polishability
  • repairable
  • durable
32
Q

can you repair bis-acryl?

A

no

33
Q

name an advantage of bis-acryl

A

resistance to abrasion

34
Q

hygienic pontic: location

A

posterior mandible

35
Q

hygienic pontic: pros

A

46
Q

you are making an FPD for the posterior mandible. the patient has poor oral hygiene. what material do you select

a) metal
b) PFM
c) zirconia
d) resin

A

metal. pt has poor oral hygiene so they should have a hygienic pontic. these require metal
