[Kinetics of supporting teeth in patients with partial dentures].
In 2 female patients with partial prostheses in the lower jaw, a pilot study was undertaken by means of inductive distance measures into the kinetics of supporting teeth during blank mastication over a period of 10 weeks. 1. Already at the beginning the end supports show unphysiological characteristics of movement during pressing and rubbing. 2. The existing canine guidance shows no abnormal kinetics of the supporting teeth during the excursions. 3. The direction of the kinetics of the supporting teeth changes in embedded part prostheses. 4. The abutment teeth show higher kinetic values after 10 weeks (without embedded partial prosthesis) than in the beginning. 5. In embedded partial prostheses all kinetic values closely approach the physiological norm. The directions on the other hand do not correspond with the physiological norm. The partial prosthesis acts as a splint for the abutment teeth.
