Introduction
Qualities of clasp:
To compensate for this property, clasp arms of croco alloy are constructed with a smaller diameter
than a gold clasp.
Quadrilateral configuration:
It is seen particularly in
class 3 situation .
Tripod configuration:
It is used primarily in
class2 situation.
Bilateral configuration:
In bilateral configuration
single retentive clasp on
each side of the arch should
be located near the center
of dental arch or denturebearing area.
The terminal abutment
tooth on each side of the
arch must be clasped
regardless of where it is
positioned.
In the bilateral
configuration the clasps
exert little neutralizing
effect on leverage induced
stresses generated by the
denture base.
Unilateral configuration:
Combination clasp:
The wrought wire retentive arm has a stressbreaking action that can absorb torsional stress in
both vertical and horizontal planes.
Indirect retainer :
The size of the food table:A large food table has the
potential of transmitting considerably more pressure on
both the residual ridges and the abutment teeth than
does a small one.
