Kratochvil's Fundamentals of Removable Partial Dentures

The removable partial denture still demands rigorous design, and that is the ground covered by this work from Ting-Ling Chang, Daniela Orellana and John Beumer III, heir to Kratochvil's principles. The route takes in the assessment of the partially edentulous patient, the criteria that govern the design of the metal framework, and the balance between retention, support and stability when the denture rests on teeth and mucosa at once. It is useful to the dentist who wants to systematise their design decisions rather than delegate them to the laboratory, and to the student facing the planning of a partial denture for the first time.
