Purpose: The main problem with semiprecision attachment retained prosthesis is that they
need frequent servicing in terms of replacing the female component. There is a need for a …

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Implant-retained overdentures are a treatment option for
patients who are not satisfied with conventional complete dentures. Although implant …

Aims and Objectives: To determine fatigue resistance of two different stud attachments with
two denture base materials–autopolymerizing and heat cure acrylic resin till 4320 cycles …

PURPOSE This in vitro study investigated and compared the durability and retention of three
types of attachments. MATERIALS AND METHODS Three commercially available …

Purpose: To compare retention forces of 3 overdenture attachment systems with metal and
plastic components. Materials and Methods: Four samples of each system evaluated (Ball …

summary This study evaluated retention force and fatigue resistance of two overdenture
attachment systems. Twenty samples (O‐ring and Bar‐Clip) from two manufacturers …

Objectives: Wear of attachments leads to a loss of retention and potentially reduces the
function of complete dentures. This study evaluated the retention force changes of different …

Background It is necessary to know the in vitro behavior of different attachment systems to
be used clinically. The evolution of retention capacity over 10 years (14,600 insertion/de …

Purpose. The purpose of this in vitro study was to investigate the effect of cyclic
dislodgement on the retention of an overdenture attachment system when 2 implants were …

Purpose The aim of this study was to compare and evaluate the retention of two new
attachment systems used for implant-supported overdentures subjected to insertion-removal …
