[Kinetics and load distribution of supported free-end prostheses. IV. Effect of the saddle curvature on the saddle resp. abutment kinetics and the load distribution in prosthesis beds without abutments].
The influence of the saddle curvature on abutment tooth kinetics and abutment tooth stress was studied with unilateral rigid and movable free-end saddle dentures. The results showed that, independent of the length of the saddle and/or of the saddle curvature, considerable horizontal and vertical extrusive abutment tooth stress is present in addition to vertical intrusive abutment tooth stress. The saddle kinetics are basically influenced by the form of the saddle. The kinetics cannot be altered appreciably because of the mechanical characteristics of the connecting elements; it can only be surpressed at the cost of increased pier stress.
