A member asked:
In removable partial dentures, can i use a distal rest on canine? or cingulum rest only?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Frame Design: The design of a partial frame takes many factors into account, including the number of abutment teeth, the shape of the abutments, path of insertion, and occlusion. Rests are placed accordingly.
