- Abstract
Esthetics is often compromised in patients who wear removable partial dentures with metal clasps placed on anterior teeth. Clinical procedures are presented for a new design of a removable partial denture that Improves esthetics and function through a new dental attachment. The extracoronal resilient attachment system offers vertical resiliency and universal stress relief for use where a resilient prosthesis is indicated. The removable partial denture retained by these attachments provides esthetics, vertical resiliency, and easy replacement of worn attachments.
