Synopsis

Many edentulous patients experience problems with their removable partial dentures especially lack of retention and stability, decrease chewing ability gave rise to development of precision attachments.The precision attachment denture has long been considered advantageous in dentistry as it combines fixed and removable prosthodontics in such a way as to create the most esthetic partial denture possible.. Precision attachments are two precocious metal components which are manufactured to form an articulate joint. First component or matrix is a metal receptacle or keyway, which is positioned within the normal clinical contours of a cast restoration placed on the attachment or the second component or patrix is attached to the removable partial denture.Precision attachments are small interlocking devices to connect prosthesis and abutments that offer a variety of solutions to the challenge of balance between functional stability and cosmetic appeal. Precision attachments have wide applications, used in fixed removable bridge, removable partial dentures, overdentures, implant retained overdentures, and maxillofacial prosthesis.
