Background: Semi-precision attachments require repeated replacements and servicing in
use, so it is important to understand the time frame of this wear and its possible replacement …

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 …

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 …

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 …

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

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 …

Aim: The aim of this in vitro study was to compare the change in the retentive force and
removal torque of three attachment systems during simulation of insertion-removal cycles …

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 …

Introduction: In an attempt to promote the reestablishment of the quality of life of edentulous
patients, several therapeutic options arise, such as implant-retained overdentures, which …

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 …
