Which of the following restoration is best for a tooth which is planned to be an abutment for RPD?
Correct Answer: Cast metal restoration
Description: Removable Prosthodontic Abutment:
Teeth that are to serve as abutments for a removable partial denture can be restored with cast-metal restorations. The advantages of cast restorations are as follows:
The superior physical properties of cast-metal alloys allow restorations to better withstand forces imparted by a partial denture.
Rest seats, guiding planes and other aspects of contour relating to partial dentures are better controlled when the indirect technique is used.
