[2025-10-02T09:24:49.779295] [PI reasoning] **Evaluating pontic options**

I’m considering the most suitable pontic for the maxillary posterior area. Aesthetics are less critical here than in the anterior region, but ridge contact and occlusion still matter. Common options include sanitary or hygienic pontics, which are typically used for the mandibular posterior. For maxillary cases, I’m leaning toward ridge lap or modified ridge lap options. I want to clarify the classifications and ensure I select the most appropriate one for this context.
