- Definition:
It's part of a Dental Prosthetic Design that aims to connect a partial denture to fixed bridgework. can be used to restore arches where there are not enough teeth for fixed bridgework.
- Parts:
The Precision Attachment consists of two parts, Female and Male parts, the male part is attached to the partial denture, while the female part is soldered to fixed crowns or bridgework.
- Advantages:
1- Cosmetic Appearance.
2- Maintainable Periodontal Health.
3- Longevity of Abutment Teeth.
4- Patient Comfort.
5- Questionable Teeth can be saved in a way that does not affect case.
6- Longevity if they are lost in the future.
7- Natural Tooth and/or Implant Abutments can Be Used.
8- Can Be Adapted to Compensate for Future Changes in the Mouth.
- Function:
- There is no mechanical locking in the design of the Precision Attachment.
- A good precision attachment partial denture will not dislodge during normal function.
- The path of insertion of the male part inside the female part is different from the pull of the muscles and the action of the tongue and gravity, so that dislodging does not happen.
- It can move in a "vertical direction" slightly to release the forces instead of passing along them to the abutment teeth, The result is "physiologic stimulation" of the abutment teeth and the edentulous ridges.
- Requirements:
- All the teeth that support bridgework are prepared with full shoulder preparations in three-dimensions.
- Any defects must be corrected surgically, to create as healthy environment as possible.
- Minimize occlusal forces by: narrow occlusal (biting surface) diameters, adequate room for hygiene, proper length and anatomy, solid and passive fit, and adequate occlusion (bite) at the correct jaw relationship.
- Must be used in a precise manner in order to maintain a high percentage of longevity.
- Precision attachment cases must fit with precision.
- The abutments must be stable.
- The frameworks must fit properly without rock.
- Steps should be followed accurately without dismissing to avoid complications.
