Inclined plane
Inclined plane
Forces against an inclined
plane may result in
deflection of that which is
applying the forces or may
result in movement to the
inclined plane, neither of
these is desirable.

Snowshoe principle This principle is based on distribution of forces to as large an area as This principle is based on distribution of forces to as large an area as
possible. Like in a snow shoe which is designed to distribute forces on possible. Like in a snow shoe which is designed to distribute forces on the entire base area of the shoe, a partial denture should cover the entire base area of the shoe, a partial denture should cover maximum area possible within the physiologic limits so as to maximum area possible within the physiologic limits so as to distribute the forces over a larger area.distribute the forces over a larger area.

Stress consideration in a partial denture
The stresses can be divided as:
Vertical
1.Displacing stresses
2. Dislodging stresses
Horizontal
Torsional

Displacing stress
Those forces which are the result of stresses along the long Those forces which are the result of stresses along the long axis of the teeth in a crown to apex direction and the axis of the teeth in a crown to apex direction and the relatively vertical stresses on the ridge mucosa. These are relatively vertical stresses on the ridge mucosa. These are the least harmful and are born well if within physiologic the least harmful and are born well if within physiologic limits.limits.

Reciprocal dislodging action occurs when wide rest position.

Horizontal stress
They originate as a component of rhythmic chewing They originate as a component of rhythmic chewing stroke. These forces are effective in mesio-distal and stroke. These forces are effective in mesio-distal and buccolingual direction. These lateral stresses are most buccolingual direction. These lateral stresses are most damagingdamaging..

Torsional stress
It is a twisting rotational type of force. It’s a combination of It is a twisting rotational type of force. It’s a combination of vertical and horizontal force. Torsion is noted most frequently vertical and horizontal force. Torsion is noted most frequently where a long segment acts upon the first abutment it engages. where a long segment acts upon the first abutment it engages. Where the ridge mucosa has higher resiliency torque is higher. Where the ridge mucosa has higher resiliency torque is higher. Torque applies rotation about a fixed point.Torque applies rotation about a fixed point.

Indirect retainer
To prevent the DEB from moving away from its seat because of cheek and tongue forces, sticky food. It uses mechanical advantage of leverage by moving the fulcrum line farther from the force.

Contributes to support and stability of the partial denture counteracts horizontal forces applied to the denture. Long span mandibular lingual bar major connector (even if tooth supported), IR provides additional support and rigidity for lingual bar. Prevents impingement of the lingual bar on the mucosa during function.

Removable partial dentures by design are intended to be removed from and replaced into the mouth. Because of this, they are not rigidly connected to the teeth or tissues, which means that they are subjected to movement in response to functional loads. These movement can cause generation of stresses which if not controlled , can damage the remaining teeth and supporting bone.Efforts must be always directed towards minimizing the harmful forces on the remaining teeth by proper designing of the RPD.
