ProsthodonticsGuiding planes are flat, polished surfaces on the abutment teeth that guide the RPD into place. They are crucial for the predictable placement of retentive elements such as clasps and for ensuring that the forces are transmitted along the long axis of the teeth, minimizing horizontal movements. Additionally, they help in the overall stability and function of the denture.

EndodonticsMost failures of replanted teeth are due to external resorption. This includes both inflammatory and replacement resorption: 1) Inflammatory resorption occurs due to infected necrotic pulp and damaged periodontal ligament, 2) Replacement resorption (ankylosis) occurs when periodontal ligament is severely damaged, 3) External resorption is progressive and often leads to tooth loss, 4) It is more common than internal resorption in replanted teeth, 5) Prevention involves proper handling, appropriate storage media, and prompt endodontic treatment when indicated.
