This Concept Map, created with IHMC CmapTools, has information related to: CONNECTORS ver 3, suffiently large to prevent distortion, CONNECTORS are affected by ESTHETIC CONSIDERATIONS, limiting factors in design of nonrigid connectors such that most prefabricated patterns, cannot always be achieved due to space constraints, not too large incisocervically otherwise would result to interference with effective plaque control, short clinical crowns do not provide adequate occlusocervical space, Gingival Interface replicates gingival, must occupy normal anatomic interproximal contact allowing adequate access, BIOLOGICAL CONSIDERATIONS such as tissue surface of connectors, large connectors of individual retainers, Gingival Interface replicates color of adjacent teeth, display of metal connector which may compromise appearance, compromise appearance leading to patient dissatisfaction, CONNECTORS are affected by MECHANICAL CONSIDERATIONS, Incisogingival Length should be the same as original tooth, configuration similar to a meniscus note the convexity of the gingival aspect, suffiently large to prevent fracture during function, elliptical in shape but cannot always be achieved, cannot always be achieved due to anatomic considerations, Properly shaped connector because large connectors
