[The form of retention and resistance of dental preparations. A review of the literature and the clinical implications].
Generally, the principles of tooth preparation are well established in the majority of textbooks dealing with fixed prosthodontics. However, one specific related aspect, retention and resistance form, still features some elements that might be less known to the clinician. The purpose of the present literature review is to contribute to the classification and current understanding of the terms of retention and resistance. Finally, the resulting clinical implications, focusing primarily on cast full veneer and porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns, will be discussed.
