[Effects of the use of removable partial dentures (RPD) on the integrity of dento-periodontal structures. Review of the literature]
Abstract
In several clinical studies on removable partial dentures (RPDS), great attention was paid to the occurrence of reactions in periodontal tissue. In this article on causes of periodontal breakdown related to RPDS, the three main factors discussed were: 1) plaque and oral hygiene 2) coverage of the marginal gingival by parts of an RPD 3) occlusal forces that are transmitted to the remaining teeth and their periodontal tissues by the prosthesis.
