resilient attachment


The extracoronal removable hinge Grifo, a well-known dental attachment international, is available in two different versions:
- G.C. 34
- G.C. 38
It is intended to retain the removable denture to one or more pillars of single or double-sided saddles.
Easy to apply, it is made up of two main parts:
- matrix, composed by one element:

- patrix, composed by four elements:
male, pin, spring and sheath, easily interchangeable removing the pin placed laterally to the sheath.
The adjustable male, provided with female supporting shoulders of cylindrical shape, gives an extremely precise guide offers an extended contact surface preventing lateral swing.
The sheath contains the spring housing and can be provided also with an end reinforcement - available also with stainless steel pins to be modeled on saddles - to be better retained in the resin.

Grifo attachments G.C.34 and G.C.38 can be provided also with adjustable patrix allowing a more precise activation.
