Precision Attachments are special attachments used for the perfect fit of removable partial dentures. The attachment prosthesis consists a combination of permanently fixed and removable denture. (semi fixed denture). It is a passive retention mechanism by which the abutment teeth are not exposed to excessive forces.
Removable partial dentures with precision attachments are used for treating terminally involved dental arches (free end saddle). It uses a double tilt retention mechanism thus preventing gravitational and muscular forces from dislodging the partial denture during function. The use of double tilting path of insertion eliminates the torquing stresses that the most abutments are forced to absorb from conventional retentive mechanisms.
We use the prefabricated attachments form Rhine83 - Italy, Bredent - Germany and CEKA.
Precision Attachment: Unilateral Solution.
The Unilateral castable attachment from Rhein83 is specifically intended for unilateral, bilateral or implant bar applications without additional support from milled bracing arms.
OT Unilateral's exclusive design features a two-in-one combination of 1.8 mm horizontal and vertical spheres utilizing OT Cap and OT Strategy micro size female caps. The male section of the attachment is engineered with a vertical strut which extends through the base of the attachment giving exceptional lateral stability and distal support to the prosthesis. The Uni-Box female component is a one-piece castable housing that covers the entire male section, adding superior strength to the acrylic. Male and female Components are invested and cast in a single ring, saving time and material costs.
