Inhaltsangabe

Connectors in Fixed Partial Dentures (FPD) are the components that join the pontic and retainers to form a single prosthesis. They provide stability, strength, and proper distribution of occlusal forces. The main classification of connectors includes rigid and non-rigid types. Rigid connectors provide a firm union, while non-rigid connectors allow limited movement between components. Common designs include keyway-key and tenon-mortise connectors. Proper connector design depends on span length, abutment alignment, occlusion, periodontal support, and available space. Adequate dimensions and smooth contours are essential for strength, aesthetics, and oral hygiene. Correct connector selection improves the function, longevity, and clinical success of an FPD.
