[Stress research on support tissues of Buffer-typed conical telescopic removable denture].

In order to explore the biomechanical physiology of Buffer-typed conical telescopic removable denture restoring defected dentition with a preponderance of teeth lost and only a few remained,the authors have studied the stress distribution of the periodontal support tissue of abutments and subbasal support tissue when subjected to forced transfered from removable denture of both Buffer-typed and non Buffer-typed telescopic retainers.The results suggest that occlusal forces can be redistribute through dentures with buffer typed conical telescopic retainers which decrease forces sustained by abutments and increase the ones by subbasal support tissues thus avoiding trauma of abutments while having certain degree if physiological stimuli.We can also decrease the forces transfered to subbasal support tissues by expanding basal areas,so to alleviate the absorption of alveolar ridges.This resut is in accordance with clinical effects.
