Infos

This textbook provides an overview of the RPD design philosophy developed by Prof F. J. Kratochvil. His "RPI system"—a clasp assembly consisting of a rest, a proximal plate, and an I-bar retainer—changed how clinicians approach partial denture design. Topics in this book include RPD components and functions, design sequences for maxillary and mandibular RPDs, and techniques for surveying and determining the most advantageous treatment position. The authors provide illustrations of clinical cases throughout the book as well as an illustrated glossary of prosthodontic terminology. This book will prepare students and general practitioners to design and fabricate a biomechanically sound RPD framework for just about any dental configuration they encounter.

Ting-Ling Chang, DDS, received her DDS from National Taiwan University in 1990 and completed two years of general practice residency and two years of prosthodontics residency training at National Taiwan University Hospital. She subsequently completed her advanced prosthodontics training in 1997 and maxillofacial prosthetics training in 1998 at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). Dr Chang is currently a Clinical Professor in the Division of Advanced Prosthodontics at the UCLA School of Dentistry. Dr Chang is a Diplomate of the American Board of Prosthodontics. Daniela Orellana, DDS, received her DDS from the Universidad Andrés Bello, Viña del Mar, Chile, in 2008. She subsequently completed a postgraduate training program in prosthodontics at the University of Michigan in 2013 and an implant fellowship at Louisiana State University in 2014. Dr Orellana is currently a Clinical Assistant Professor in the Division of Advanced Prosthodontics at the UCLA School of Dentistry. John Beumer III, dds, ms, received his DDS from the University of California, San Francisco in 1967. He subsequently completed his postgraduate training in oral medicine there in 1970 before continuing with postgraduate training in prosthodontics at UCLA. He is a Distinguished Professor Emeritus in the Division of Advanced Prosthodontics at the UCLA School of Dentistry and was formerly chair of that division. Dr Beumer has published extensively in the scientific literature, including Maxillofacial Rehabilitation (Quintessence, 2011) and Fundamentals of Implant Dentistry (Quintessence, 2015–2016).
