It approaches the tooth from the gum side (an \u201cinfrabulge\u201d approach) and contacts the tooth with a small, I-shaped terminal. It is commonly used as part of an RPI clasp system (Rest, Proximal plate, I-bar) on teeth next to an edentulous area (a space where teeth are missing). In simple terms, it is a slender metal arm designed to provide retention with limited tooth coverage."}
