Abstract:
Because the partially removable clasp prosthetic device is a unitary, rigid and undeformable construction, it’s subject to tipping because the segments opposite to the one we mobilize will move at the same
amplitude but in reverse. This tipping, which is caused by the imbalance between resistance and solicitation on certain constructive segments of the partially removable prosthesis, is produced by rotation. To
counter the tipping we have to solve two categories of issues: balancing the constructive ensemble of the
partially removable prosthesis on the prosthetic field and equipping the partially removable prosthesis
with special elements. Specific for countering the tipping is the way we place the support, maintenance
and stabilization elements with anti-tipping effect. The technical solution for both category issues is removing the factors which determine the appearance of the tipping axis.
