The Precision Attachment Dentures

Precision attachments are used i.e. for partial dentures as shown on this site. They provide support, stability and retention.
In a patient who only has a few worn remaining teeth, it is imperative to keep the roots and fit the precision attachments to the top of them so that the dentures can be clipped on and off.
The main reason for having precision attachments is for aesthetic reasons as they have no clasps.
The Precision Attachment Dentures consist of crowns with attachments, i.e. a combination of permanently fixed and removable dentures.
The front teeth, for example, are fixed in place by crowns or bridges. The removable section of the denture is attached to the crowns by invisible precision mechanical auxiliary parts. The fit and handling of the precision attachment are ideal.
Most aesthetic requirements can also be taken into account. When the prosthesis is removed from the mouth, the fixed crowns remain in place, so that there are no cosmetic disadvantages.

• +++ Elimination of anaesthetic clasps
• +++ Better force distribution to supporting teeth
• +++ Stops denture from moving side to side or up and down
• +++ Reduces food impaction, plaque and decay
• +++ Improved comfort and chewing efficiency
