    This document discusses rest seats and their functions. Rest seats are prepared areas on teeth that receive rest components to provide support and retention for removable partial dentures. Key functions of rest seats include directing forces along the long axis of teeth, preventing denture movement, and maintaining the relationship between clasps and teeth. The document provides guidelines for preparing different types of rest seats, including occlusal, cingulum, lingual, and incisal rest seats.

    Rests & Rest Seats

    Rest
     A rigid component resting in a recessed
    preparation on the occlusal, lingual or
    incisal surface
     Provides vertical support
    Rest Seat
     Portion of a tooth prepared to receive a
    rest
    Functions
     Direct forces along long axis of abutment
    Functions
     SUPPORT - prevents denture base from
    moving cervically & impinging gingiva
    Slides down incline

    Fractured abutment, no
    rest seat
    Major connector imbeds into tissue
    Functions
     Maintain a clasp -tooth relationship
    Functions
     Prevent extrusion of abutments
     Provide reference for relines or
    impressions
    Functions
     Act as indirect retainer
     Prevents rotation (Class I or II RPD’s
    only)
    Preparation of Rest Seats
     Light pressure
     High-speed handpiece
     +/- Waterspray
     Minimal heat is generated
    Preparation of Rest Seats

     Keep in enamel
     No anesthesia
    Preparation of Rest Seats
     Occlusal Rest Seats
     Diamonds 8801- 014

     8801- 014
     38006 -135
     Medium round
    carbide burs
     #2, #4
    Preparation of Rest Seats
    8837K-014
     Cingulum Rest Seats &
    Guiding Planes
     Long, medium
    diameter cylindrical
    bur or diamond (e.g.
    #57L; 8837K-014)
    Rest Seat Form
     Smooth flowing outline form (i.e. no
    sharp line angles)
    Occlusal Rest Seat Form
     Rounded triangular shape
     Apex near center of tooth
    Occlusal Rest Seat Form
     Base of triangle should be one third the
    bucco-lingual width of the tooth
    Occlusal Rest Seat Form
     Marginal ridge must be lowered and
    rounded 1-1.5mm
     Bulk of metal to prevent fracture
    Occlusal Rest Seat Form
     Floor inclined towards the center
     Angle formed by rest and minor
    connector should be less than 900
    Occlusal Rest Seat Form
     Deepest portion is central
    Occlusal Rest Seat Form
     Floor should be concave or spoon shaped
    ball-&-socket joint
     Prevents horizontal stresses & torque
    Occlusal Rest Seat Form
     Directs the occlusal forces along the long
    axis of the tooth
     Prevent orthodontic movement
    “Positive” Rest Seats
     An explorer tip will not slide off the rest
    seat
    Occlusal Rest Seat Form
     Conventional Form
    Occlusal Rest Seat Form
     Adjacent Tooth
     Rest not flared to facial line angle
     Lingual flared more - space for minor
    connector
    Double Embrasure Rest Seat
    Form
     Adjacent teeth, the form is also modified
     Flared more dramatically on facial and
    lingual line angles
    Double Embrasure Rest Seat
    Form
     Provides space for the retentive &
    bracing arms
     Ensure all line angles are smoothed
    Lingual Rest Seats
     Usually the canine, due to its well-
    developed cingulum
     When canine is not available, an incisor
    may be used
    Cingulum Rest Seat Form
     Inverted “V”
     < 900
    Cingulum Rest Seat Form
     Slightly rounded to avoid sharp line
    angles
     Test as ‘positive’ with explorer tip
     1mm depth
    Correct Preparation
    Preparation Too High
    Preparation Too Low
    Cingulum Rest Preparation
     Do not create an enamel undercut
     Cylindrical bur along the long axis of the
    tooth
    Cingulum Rest Seat Placement
     Place in sound tooth structure or
    restorations
     Not on amalgam restorations
     If not prominent or large pulp
     Use different tooth
     Bonded rest seat
     Onlay or crown
    Maxillary Cingulum Rest Seats

     Avoid opposing occlusion


    Maxillary Cingulum Rest Seats
     1.5 - 2.0 mm clearance for metal
     Check with articulated models
    Bonded Cingulum Rests
     Flat emergence profile
     Pumice, rinse, etch, bond using rubber
    dam
     Ensure cervical composite well adapted
    Composite Bonded Rest Seat Form

    Correct Overcontoured Overcontoured


    Open margin
    Round Lingual Rest Seat Form

     Mesial of the canine teeth when typical


    cingulum rest contraindicated
     Large restoration
     Lack of clearance with the opposing
    teeth
     Poor cingulum
    Round Lingual Rest Seat Form
     Spoon shaped, similar to occlusal rest seat
     More difficult due to the incline of the
    lingual surface
     Easily incorporated into crowns
    Incisal Rests
     Inferior mechanically & esthetically
     Lingual rest is nearer to the center of
    rotation
     Less torquing potential
