Attachments used in implant restorations

The use of attachments in prosthodontics is commonly linked to restorations with natural teeth support.
Recently they have found a further use in implant dentistry. It is not a rule, but we can undoubtedly assert that most part of attachments on the market, and in particular those in calcinable plastic, is suitable to carry out a retentive action in implant-supported restorations.
It is possible to adopt various technical solutions such as, for example, magnets, bar-clip, ball-socket attachments. Among all available solutions we advise bar restorations conceived as follows:

  1. Round C-rider bars of diam. 1,8 or 1,9 mm cast in precious alloys (or gold alloy bar soldered), retained with metal or plastic C-riders processed into the denture acrylic.
     
  2. Milled bars with 2° taper joined with patrices in calcinable plastic such as patrices in extension of dove-tail guide Swift-Art, or round parallel patrices V-slide or rounded bar with stud S-ball and then retained with changeable matrices of different retentive strengths.
     
  3. 0° milled bars matched with plastic friction-grip attachments Skate available in four levels of retention, or with plunger retention devices of elastic retention Fox to be incorporated into the distal portion of the framework.
