Question 56 · LDEK · Acrylic partial dentures
The mucosa-supported removable partial denture is used in the following cases:
1) bounded edentulous spaces, when the quality of abutment teeth permits fixed dentures;
2) large edentulous spaces, when the number, quality and location of abutment teeth make it impossible to perform fixed dentures or tooth-supported removable partial dentures;
3) reconstruction of occlusion in order to temporary retain the mandible position in the construction bite;
4) immediate partial dentures, when there is sufficient number of abutment teeth for the tooth-supported denture.
The correct answer is:
2) large edentulous spaces, when the number, quality and location of abutment teeth make it impossible to perform fixed dentures or tooth-supported removable partial dentures;
3) reconstruction of occlusion in order to temporary retain the mandible position in the construction bite;
4) immediate partial dentures, when there is sufficient number of abutment teeth for the tooth-supported denture.
The correct answer is:
- A. 1,3.
