Question 115 (part 2) · LDEK · Cast partial dentures

Indicate the aims of parallelometer analysis of working models during planning of cast removable dentures:

1) finding the possibility of optimum fixation of the cast removable denture;
2) finding 2 or 3 parallel teeth for designing the rests;
3) finding parallel surfaces in order for designing the denture base;
4) finding the insertion path, in which most valuable clasp surfaces are obtained;
5) obtaining appropriate data for appropriate planning of the construction elements.
Correct answer is:
  1. A. 1,2,3,4.
  2. B. 1,4,5.
  3. C. 1,3,4,5.
  4. D. 1,2,4,5.
  5. E. 2,3,4,5.
Hint

Surveying is about choosing the path of insertion and collecting design data, not about parallel teeth for rests or the major connector.
