About this document
Biomechanical Factors in FPD Design by د.فستقه is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses several biomechanical considerations for fixed partial dentures (FPDs), including: 1. Span length affects the feasibility of an FPD - longer spans are less rigid and deflect more under force. Replacing three posterior teeth with an FPD rarely has a good prognosis. 2. Arch curvature can cause additional stress, especially when replacing four maxillary incisors. Using canines and premolars as abutments can help resist tipping forces. 3. A "pier abutment" with spaces on both sides ca
