Rests & Rest Seats
Rest
 A rigid component resting in a recessed
preparation on the occlusal, lingual or
incisal surface
 Provides vertical support
Rest Seat
 Portion of a tooth prepared to receive a
rest
Functions
 Direct forces along long axis of abutment
Functions
 SUPPORT - prevents denture base from
moving cervically & impinging gingiva
Slides down incline
Fractured abutment, no
rest seat
Major connector imbeds into tissue
Rest & Rest Seat.ppt
Functions
 Maintain a clasp -tooth relationship
Functions
 Prevent extrusion of abutments
 Provide reference for relines or
impressions
Functions
 Act as indirect retainer
 Prevents rotation (Class I or II RPD’s
only)
Preparation of Rest Seats
 Light pressure
 High-speed handpiece
 +/- Waterspray
 Minimal heat is generated
Preparation of Rest Seats
 Keep in enamel
 No anesthesia
Preparation of Rest Seats
 Occlusal Rest Seats
 Diamonds
8801- 014
38006 -135
8801- 014
Rest Seat Form
 Smooth flowing outline form (i.e. no
sharp line angles)
Occlusal Rest Seat Form
 Rounded triangular shape
 Apex near center of tooth
Occlusal Rest Seat Form
 Base of triangle should be one third the
bucco-lingual width of the tooth
Occlusal Rest Seat Form
 Marginal ridge must be lowered and
rounded 1-1.5mm
 Bulk of metal to prevent fracture
Occlusal Rest Seat Form
 Floor inclined towards the center
 Angle formed by rest and minor
connector should be less than 900
Occlusal Rest Seat Form
 Deepest portion is central
Occlusal Rest Seat Form
 Floor should be concave or spoon shaped
ball-&-socket joint
 Prevents horizontal stresses & torque
Occlusal Rest Seat Form
 Directs the occlusal forces along the long
axis of the tooth
 Prevent orthodontic movement
“Positive” Rest Seats
 Explorer tip will not slide off the rest seat
Explorer will
NOT slip off rest
seat if pulled
proximallly
Explorer WILL

if pulled
proximallly
‘Positive’ Rest Seat
(< 90°)
Rest Seat not ‘Positive’
(>90°)
Avoid Undercuts
 Must draw along path of insertion
Occlusal Rest Seat Movie
Occlusal Rest Seat Form
 Conventional Form
Occlusal Rest Seat Form
 Adjacent Tooth
 Rest not flared to facial line angle
 Lingual flared more - space for minor
connector
Double Embrasure Rest Seat
Form
 Adjacent teeth, the form is also modified
 Flared more dramatically on facial and
lingual line angles
Double Embrasure Rest Seat
Form
 Provides space for the retentive &
bracing arms
 Ensure all line angles are smoothed
Lingual Rest Seats
 Usually the canine, due to its well-
developed cingulum
 When canine is not available, an incisor
may be used
Cingulum Rest Seat Form
 Inverted “V”
 < 900
Cingulum Rest Seat Form
 Slightly rounded to avoid sharp line
angles
 Test as ‘positive’ with explorer tip
 1mm depth
Correct Preparation
Preparation Too High
Preparation Too Low
Preparation of Rest Seats
 Cingulum Rest Seats &
Guiding Planes
 Long, medium
diameter cylindrical
diamond 8837K-014
8837K-014
Cingulum Rest Preparation
 Do not create an enamel undercut
 Cylindrical bur along the long axis of the
tooth
Cingulum Rest Seat Movie
Cingulum Rest Seat Placement
 Place in sound tooth structure or
restorations
 Not on amalgam restorations
 If not prominent or large pulp
 Use different tooth
 Bonded rest seat
 Onlay or crown
Maxillary Cingulum Rest Seats
 Avoid opposing occlusion
Maxillary Cingulum Rest Seats
 1.5 - 2.0 mm clearance for metal
 Check with articulated models
Bonded Cingulum Rests
 Flat emergence profile
 Pumice, rinse, etch, bond using rubber
dam
 Ensure cervical composite well adapted
Composite Bonded Rest Seat Form
Correct Overcontoured Overcontoured
Open margin
Bonded Rest Seat Movie
Round Lingual Rest Seat Form
 Mesial of the canine teeth when typical
cingulum rest contraindicated
 Large restoration
 Lack of clearance with the opposing
teeth
 Poor cingulum
Round Lingual Rest Seat Form
 Spoon shaped, similar to occlusal rest seat
 More difficult due to the incline of the
lingual surface
 Easily incorporated into crowns
Incisal Rests
 Inferior mechanically & esthetically
 Lingual rest is nearer to the center of
rotation
 Less torquing potential
Bring to Seminar Rooms:
 Ball burnisher if you have one
 Boxof casts with prepartions on them
 Any typodonts for checking of guiding
plane preparations (Surveyor needed for
checking)
