ABSTRACT:
A partial denture for the mandibular region is at least partially supported by brackets bonded to the lingual surfaces of one or more of the mandibular anterior teeth. The support brackets are mounted on the lingual tooth surfaces which are prepared by grinding a small horizontal ledge and a generally planar support surface for bonding the brackets to the tooth surfaces for transferring forces in a generally vertical direction directly to the teeth and along a line relatively close to the longitudinal vertical axis of the tooth. The support brackets are provided with a U shaped recess forming spaced apart upstanding legs to maximize the distribution of supporting loads between the bracket and the tooth.
