Today’s practitioners are provided with an ever improving armamentarium of materials, changing techniques and a better understanding of the oral environment. This makes it all the more important to reconcile what is actually feasible with the patient’s own expectations.
A prosthesis may be required for missing teeth to restore appearance and speech, to improve chewing, or to spread occlusal load over a wider area. Constructing a restoration may prevent migration of teeth adjacent to a space, or overeruption of the opposing teeth.
For bilateral missing teeth there are many treatment options, among one of them is Precision attachments. This can transform patient’s attitude to the wearing of removable prosthesis. They are more stable and retentive than conventional dentures and for these reasons are better tolerated.
The current paper is a unique and cost effective technique of duplicating commercially available precision attachments to fabricate the prosthesis.
