If you go to the following link you'll see the difference between chisel and chipper style teeth. When the cutting edge has a straight top plate with a 90 degree (+/-) corner, it's a chisel chain. When it has a mild radius on the corner it's called a semi-chisel and an arced/rounded corner is a chipper style. "Full" chisel is just to differentiate from "semi" chisel. "Full" can also refer to the difference between a "skip tooth" chain and a "full" chain, which regards the spacing between cutter teeth. Chisel chain comes with and without anti-kickback features, usually related to the depth gauge (raker) shape and size. By itself, I don't believe a sharp chisel chain is any more or less likely to kickback than a sharp semi chisel or chipper chain. But chisel is more aggressive in cutting so it's said to be more prone. I've had so called "safety chain" or anti-kickback chain kick back. Nothing bad happened to me because I have good safety habits when I use a saw as far as kick back goes. You keep your left arm pretty straight and don't lean over the saw and a lot less bad things will happen. Safety has to come first with any style of chain tooth. Myself, I've seen more people hurt with a dull anti-kickback type chain than with a sharp chisel chain, but that's just me and what I've seen. There is no such thing as a "safe" chainsaw chain.
The link shows just chisel and chipper chain. Semi-chisel just has a radius where the "point" on the chisel chain is.
