RESUMEN
Everyone who participates in any step of the fabrication of a removable partial denture must share in the success or failure of the restoration. Some seemingly innocuous deviations can be accumulative and cause serious problems, so everyone should review the procedures that they use on a regular basis. Parts I through III of this article present a personal and generic (but by no means comprehensive) list of errors that can occur when a removable partial denture is fabricated. Results that can be attributed to these errors are identified, and a possible solution for each error is described. This information is useful to the entire dental team: the dentist, dental assistant, office manager, and dental technician. The articles also include 18 notes that may be beneficial to personnel in the office and/or in the laboratory.

The success or failure of a removable partial denture is dependent on many factors. To achieve success, the practitioner must develop and sequence a sound treatment plan based on clinical and radiographic evidence. These findings must be carefully considered in prosthesis design and mouth preparation. Particular attention must be given to the proper placement of guiding planes and well-made rest seats and the use of surveyed crowns on abutment teeth. This article describes the rationale, importance, and clinical procedures for abutment preparation for removable partial dentures.

When this procedure is followed carefully, a strip of 0.0005-inch shim stock meets resistance when an attempt is made to withdraw it from between the teeth in occlusion and the incisal pin and its table simultaneously. Therefore, it is possible to process complete dentures by using compression molding and external heat for polymerization. The procedure involves a precise step-by-step method with particular emphasis on (1) investing properly in dental stone, (2) packing only one denture at a time with only one mix of acrylic resin, (3) using minimum packing pressure with maximum flow time, (4) trial packing until no flash is evident, and (5) careful deflasking.
