Jaw frame is an indication of a partial removable dental prosthesis whose main part is a metal frame, the entire alloy structure of the frame such as hooks, saddles, connecting rods are cast together into one block, then dentures The replacement will be attached to an acrylic prosthetic saddle.
Teeth that are attached to the metal frame can be plastic teeth or porcelain teeth, helping the ability to chew firmly and gently. In addition, the framework function also has the Attachment frame type, which is the type of framework function that is combined with the links to make the function more stable. This type of frame jaw has a more complicated procedure than plastic removable teeth and requires better clinical coordination, but provides a more solid chewing feeling.

Indications for jaw jaws in people who have lost teeth when:
Loss of posterior teeth together with no remaining limited teeth on the distal side. Missing teeth on one side of the jaw. Patients with missing teeth are fixed but do not want to grind their teeth. The advantages of using brackets in the treatment of tooth loss include:

Helps to achieve aesthetic requirements because it restores the lost bone in front of the tooth socket. Helps reduce the feeling of entanglement, difficult to adapt due to the compact jaw, creating comfort for the patient when using. The frame jaw is designed to be empty around the neck and gums of the remaining teeth, helping to maintain these teeth for a long time, increasing appetite when eating. The chewing surface rests, the tough connection between the prosthetic saddle and the abutment teeth also help reduce the chewing force on the jaw, preventing rapid bone loss. Besides, compared with fixed restorations, the frame jaw does not have to grind teeth and costs less, without having to interfere with some intact teeth to make restorations.
3. When specifying a framework function, what should be monitored?
When a patient is assigned to use a frame jaw, doctors and technicians need to monitor some of the following issues:
Identify the correct bearing teeth and bearing positions. Proper grinding technique on bearing points. Check mold quality to assess satisfactory level. After the procedure, make an appointment for regular check-ups to evaluate the results and make minor repairs if needed. However, any procedure will have complications, in which the frame jaw can cause complications such as:
Tear of the mucosa when testing the frame, taking the frame too hard. Pain, inflammation of mucous membranes. Occlusion channel. Dentures are removed from the jaw. The frame jaw hook is broken due to being too thin or subjected to mechanical impact, and needs to be fixed with teeth or re-hook.
