It is suggested that bonded composite resin cingulum rest seats can be used longitudinally without damaging the periodontal tissues of abutment teeth.Abstract:
This study aimed to examine the longitudinal influence of bonded composite resin cingulum rest seats on abutment tooth periodontal tissues in removable partial dentures (RPDs). Twenty-eight patients with RPDs were enrolled in the study. Thirty-one cingulum rest seats were prepared for an anterior tooth using composite resin and a standardized method for each patient. Periodontal indices such as probing pocket depth (PD), bleeding on probing (BoP), and tooth mobility (TM) were measured at the time of denture insertion (baseline) and at least 3 months postinsertion (up to 8 years). Control data were obtained from the remaining nonprepared anterior teeth on the other side of the arch. None of the bonded resin rest seats failed, but slight abrasion was observed in 3 rest seats. No significant differences were found in terms of PD, BoP, and TM between baseline and postinsertion data for abutments with bonded resin rest seats and controls. It is suggested that bonded composite resin cingulum rest seats can be used longitudinally without damaging the periodontal tissues of abutment teeth.read more

TL;DR: Adequate periodontal assessment and treatment, appropriate instructions, and motivation in self-performed plaque control and compliance to maintenance protocols appear to be the most important factors to limit or avoid potential negative effects on the periodontium caused by fixed and removable prostheses.

TL;DR: The results of this study suggest that rest seats are stable, regardless of the material on which they are prepared, and retentive areas were shown to be more stable when they were located in enamel.

Development of a lingual rest seat using adhesive composite resin after removable partial denture delivery
TL;DR: To improve the support of removable partial dentures, lingual rests are usually prepared on anterior incisor teeth or canines, but these preparations are rarely satisfactory on anterior teeth because the enamel lacks the necessary thickness.
