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

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

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

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 …

Several attachment systems for mandibular implant-supported overdentures are currently
available and studies are required to understand their mechanical properties. The objective …

summary Changes in the retention force of six prefabricated spherical and cylindrical
attachments were examined in vitro under continuous loading. The testing machine …

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. There are few research studies concerning prefabricated posts
overdenture attachment systems using multiple pull cycles. Purpose. This study tested 6 …

Objectives: To evaluate fatigue of stud (ERA Overdenture (orange and white), Locator Root
(pink) and OP anchor# 4) and magnetic (Magfit EX600W) attachments by measuring …

Statement of problem Overdentures can improve the quality of life of elderly patients
compared with conventional complete dentures. Different attachment systems can be used …
