The design of the clasp prosthesis consists of the following main components:
- Metal frame-arc
- Support-retaining elements
- Artificial teeth attached to an arch
The metal arch, which runs along the palate of the upper jaw or under the tongue, is an important component of the clasp denture, as it combines two bases on which artificial teeth are installed.
Base - an element of the prosthesis, including artificial teeth and connected to the branches of the metal parts of the supporting prosthesis. With the help of locks (connecting elements), the base is installed and secured to the supporting teeth, while resting against the alveolar process.
The base is made of plastic reinforced with metal mesh.
Prosthetics using clasp
Modern dentistry allows you to use this type of removable prosthetics, such as a clasp denture, when several teeth are lost.
Most experts believe that there is no alternative to it today: the advantage lies in the comfort of wearing and the even distribution of the load when chewing between the remaining teeth and gums.
Prosthetics using a clasp makes it possible to replace any part of the teeth.
Advantages
They are distinguished by the presence of a cast metal frame in the form of a thin arc - a clasp. The plastic base and artificial teeth are fixed on this thin frame.
Dentures are installed in cases where it is impossible to use permanent structures in the form of a bridge. The thin arch in clasp dentures makes wearing them comfortable - it does not cover the palate, making it possible to feel the taste of food.
Clasp denture on the lower jaw
If a prosthesis is installed on the lower jaw, the metal arch does not allow it to fall out and does not interfere with the movement of the tongue. In addition, diction does not deteriorate during a conversation. Thanks to the clasps, the service life of dentures increases to 5 years; for plastic options, this period is 2.5 years.
It has been established that bone tissue and gum tissue atrophy over time when wearing prostheses, their shape changes and no longer coincides with the shape of the prosthesis. Discomfort, pain appears, and fixation worsens. Under clasp dentures, such atrophy occurs much more slowly - this allows you to increase the period of wearing them.
Features of clasp dentures
The first clasp dentures had the shape of an arc. Even the name of this design is literally translated as “arc”. The main advantage is that the clasp denture distributes the chewing load across all supporting teeth and hard tissues of the oral cavity. But unlike removable dentures, they do not completely cover the palate or most of the gums. This means that they do not distort the sense of taste, do not affect diction, and getting used to them takes less time.
In the form of fastening on clasp dentures, a beam, locks and clasps are used. All of them do not injure tooth tissue and do not interfere with chewing or talking. In addition, their special installation ensures an aesthetically pleasing appearance while smiling.
Clasp prosthesis is partially removable. Patients can take it off in one motion and put it on just as easily. But it is worth noting that there is no particular need to remove the clasp dentures at night, as happens with removable plastic dentures. In most cases, patients remove it only to perform hygiene procedures. Due to the special type of fastening, the clasp denture will never fall off during chewing or talking, which is considered its main advantage over other dentures.
Advantages and disadvantages
Experts highlight the following advantages of clasp-type dentures:
- uniform distribution of chewing load throughout the entire jaw;
- aesthetics, which is achieved by equipping the structure with tiny fasteners;
- comfortable wearing, which is ensured by the small size of the metal frame;
- strength and reliability (the metal arc can withstand regular and heavy loads, unlike polymer analogues).
The disadvantages of clasp structures may not appear if the preparatory work for installing the prosthesis and measurements are performed at a high level. Most of the complaints from patients are related to calculation errors by the dentist.
As for the prosthesis itself, despite its strength, sometimes there are cases of clasps breaking. Such a defect cannot be repaired; the entire structure must be replaced.
The disadvantages are also attributed to the high cost of the product, but it is quite justified. The metal arc casting process involves the use of high-tech technology that requires high precision.
This ensures the strength and reliability of the prosthesis, hence the long service life, which is fully compensated by comfortable wearing.
The structure of the clasp prosthesis
The main parts of a clasp denture are a metal frame, the fasteners listed above, an arch, and also a base on which artificial teeth are attached. The arch, clasps and base are responsible for fixation in the prosthesis. Support-retaining structures in clasp dentures are solid, individually cast from metal and then soldered, and also soldered wire. The choice is made purely individually depending on the number of missing teeth and the condition of the jaw.
In most cases, clasps are used. They are special hooks that hold the clasp denture on the supporting teeth:
There are several ways to make a clasp for clasp dentures:
- It is considered simple to bend the wire in accordance with the shape of the prosthesis model.
- A complex clasp is cast as a solid crown from a special alloy during the manufacture of the arch of the clasp prosthesis.
But the holding elements are divided not only according to the manufacturing method.
There are clasps:
- supporting;
- holding;
- performing these two functions at once.
The first distribute the load from the clasp denture, which occurs during talking, chewing, clenching teeth, onto the supporting teeth and partially onto the mucous membrane. In contrast, the retaining clasps of clasp dentures transfer the load to the mucous membrane, plunging into it when pressure occurs. The latter are capable of performing the functions of both the former and the latter.
All clasps consist of several parts. The clasp body of the clasp denture is located on the supporting tooth in its upper area. The clasp arm touches the side surface of the tooth. Due to the presence of an occlusal pad, the clasp prosthesis does not sink deep into the gum and does not injure it during chewing. In addition, it is able to restore the height of crowns. In addition, there is a process of the clasp or that part of it that is located in the body of the base of the clasp prosthesis.
Clasp dentures with locking fastening look and attach differently. Unlike dentures with clasps, they are completely invisible to others, because fixation is carried out by micro-locks that are located in the clasp denture system.
In this case, metal-ceramic crowns are placed on the supporting teeth, in which one part of the lock is attached. Its second part is fixed in the clasp prosthesis. During dressing, the clasps are fastened and the denture is securely held in the oral cavity and does not fall off during chewing. In this case, the load from the clasp denture falls only on the supporting teeth, so you should not use this method of fixation in cases where the teeth have mobility.
Based on the fastening methods, it remains to conclude that a clasp denture is indicated only in cases where there are supporting teeth. Without them, the clasp prosthesis will not hold.
In addition to the support system, the clasp prosthesis has a base. The teeth are attached to it. Today, prosthetics are carried out using various dental manufacturing companies. Due to this, you can achieve high aesthetics and an attractive appearance. The same applies to the plastic used for the base of the clasp prosthesis. High-quality materials have a long service life and are distinguished by their perfect resemblance to living gums and natural teeth. The price of such a prosthesis will be a little more expensive, but it will have virtually no disadvantages.
You can choose a suitable clasp prosthesis from the photo, but it is better to hold it in your hands. Therefore, only a visit to the dentist will provide comprehensive information about the clasp denture.
Stages of clasp prosthetics
Preparation of prosthetics
Preparation for clasp prosthetics begins with an examination of the patient. Doctors carefully listen to the patient’s complaints and wishes, conduct a dental examination, and study the patient’s medical history. After this, after analyzing the results of the examination, dentists decide on the need for clasp prosthetics.
Treatment of dental diseases
Before the production of the prosthesis begins, teeth that cannot be preserved are removed, periodontal disease and other dental diseases are treated. If there is a pronounced inclination of the abutment tooth or if there are restorations on it, as well as with prosthetics using telescopic or locking fixation, crowns are put on the abutment teeth.
Clasp dentures have a number of advantages over bridges:
- Installation of clasp removable dentures does not require preparation of some teeth and does not limit their mobility.
- Chewing pressure is evenly distributed between the alveolar processes and the remaining teeth.
- Clasp dentures are hygienic; they can be cleaned mechanically outside the oral cavity.
To individually assess the condition of your teeth and make various solutions to your problem, you need to have a free consultation with an orthopedic dentist. A highly qualified specialist will help in any of your situations.
Making a prosthesis
All video presentations
Taking an impression
The production of a clasp prosthesis begins with taking a diagnostic impression. This impression is used to create a working model, which the dental technician is guided by when making the frame.
Production of clasps
The most critical stage of work is the production of clasps or crowns with fasteners. The clasps must accurately follow the shape of the patient’s supporting teeth and tightly cover them without damaging the enamel. In turn, the crowns with the mating parts of the locks must completely correspond to the clasp itself with the lock. Precision in the production of fasteners is a guarantee of the durability of the prosthesis and ease of use.
Casting the prosthesis frame
Having completed work on the manufacture of fasteners, the dental technician sketches the frame of the prosthesis and duplicates the working cast, that is, creates a fire-resistant master model. Then the sketch of the future clasp is transferred to a fireproof cast, and casting channels and a flask are installed on it. Gold-platinum, titanium or cobalt-chromium alloys are used to cast the frame.
Installation of artificial teeth and fitting
The finished frame is polished, support-retaining and unloading elements are attached to it, and it is tried on in the patient’s growth cavity. After this, artificial teeth matching the color are installed on the base and re-fitting is performed. On average, the production of a prosthesis takes 2 months.
Conclusion: Indications for the use of removable clasp dentures
In persons with partial absence of teeth, along with end defects, combined and included defects are often encountered. Plate and clasp removable dentures can successfully replace end defects. Clasp dentures have a number of significant advantages over removable plate dentures:
- The base part of clasp dentures is minimal.
- The arch in the prosthesis ensures uniform distribution of the load between its sides.
- The prosthesis contains supporting clasps, which allow partial transfer of the load through the tissues of the supporting teeth.
- Compared to other complete removable dentures, clasp dentures can be slightly adjusted.
- The oral mucosa and gingival papillae are partially released.
- Reliable fixation of the prosthesis speeds up adaptation.
Indications and contraindications
Installation of beam prostheses is indicated for:
- existing extensive defects: loss of several teeth (4–5);
- defects in the lateral part of the dentition, combined with minor defects in the terminal and anterior parts;
- the presence of defects in the end and side sections of the row;
- the need to splint abutment teeth by connecting them into one structure with a beam and artificial crowns;
- treatment of periodontal diseases with complications in the form of partial tooth loss.
Contraindications include:
– insufficient height of the supporting teeth, which does not allow reliable fixation of artificial crowns;
– a small gap between the toothless alveolar processes or the process and the antagonist tooth;
– fragile fixation in the absence of 1-2 teeth: support-retaining clasps are required to strengthen the structure.
Caring for a clasp denture
As already mentioned, the clasp prosthesis does not need to be removed at night. You can wash it in the morning after sleeping and in the evening after eating using a toothbrush. There are many products for caring for dentures, including rinses. The doctor can explain to you how they work and help you choose based on the materials of the clasp prosthesis.
Clasp dentures are not suitable for everyone. The condition of the teeth is important, as well as the general reaction to the materials from which the prosthesis is made. However, here too experts have found a way out, using a special type of plastic that does not cause allergies. The cost of such a clasp prosthesis will be a couple of thousand rubles more than a simple one, but you will be able to use it with great pleasure.
No patient can choose a denture option on their own. Only the dentist will determine the condition of the jaw and supporting teeth, and also select the type of clasp denture.
All you have to do is make an appointment with a dentist at our center and receive all the comprehensive information from him. Once you understand what a clasp prosthesis is, we are confident that you will give us a positive review, like many others.
Care, repair and service life
It is recommended to carry out hygiene procedures at least 2 times a day
The process of caring for a clasp-type prosthesis is simple, but requires regular attention.
Throughout the day, bacteria accumulate in the oral cavity, which leads to the development of inflammation of the mucous membrane and the formation of an unpleasant odor.
At night, salivation decreases, as a result of which plaque appears on the teeth and structures.
Timely cleaning of the mouth using special means: toothpaste and brush, dental floss, mouthwash balm will help get rid of complications.
It is recommended to carry out hygiene procedures at least 2 times a day, and after each meal you need to rinse your mouth with water.
To prevent the surfaces of the prosthesis from wearing out prematurely, it is better to purchase pastes with a mild action (not aggressive). Once every six months, you should contact a specialist for professional cleaning of the oral cavity, especially for coffee lovers, because the drink changes the color of artificial teeth (turn yellow).
During wear, the prosthesis may break. The reasons are different, but they are all provoked by a sharp mechanical impact on the structure. The possibility of repair depends on the severity of the product failure.
The main types of breakdowns include:
- broken metal fasteners;
- formation of a crack anywhere in the structure;
- detachment of artificial teeth;
- damage to the lock part;
- fracture of the prosthesis into two parts.
The service life of the prosthesis with proper care is 5-10 years.
