Abstract: (5867 Views)
Background and Aim: Proper designing of partial denture frameworks is the duty of dentists, but this task is often abdicated to technicians because of lack of time and experience. Computer assisted learning and designing can be used for both training dental students and helping dentists design proper frameworks. As the first step to prepare software for framework designing, this study evaluated the agreement on different framework designing principles, among prosthodontists of dental schools in Iran.
Materials and Methods: A questionnaire consisting of 121 design rules was sent to 41 prosthodontists at seven dental schools in Iran .The percentage rate of agreement on results was used for data analysis.
Results: The percentage of rules accepted by more than 60% of the prosthodontists was 76.2%. It consisted 80% saddle rules, 76.2% rest rules, 78.4% clasp rules, 63.6% maxillary major connector's rules and 80.9% mandibular major connector rules.
Conclusion: The percentage of accepted rules by Iranian prosthodontists was 76.2%. Maxillary major connectors had the least acceptance.
