  • Title: [Adhesive attachments for removable partial dentures].
    Author: Keltjens HM, Creugers NH.
    Journal: Ned Tijdschr Tandheelkd; 2003 Jun; 110(6):261-4. PubMed ID: 12852064.
    Abstract:
    Since twenty years adhesive dentistry plays a certain role in the design of removable partial dentures. With the use of adhesive attachments the esthetics and retention of a removable partial denture can be improved. To apply these attachments successfully the contour of a sound abutment has to be corrected by grinding to provide retention and resistance. The procedures for constructing removable partial dentures with adhesive attachments are described. It is recommended to apply adhesive attachments in the general dental practice.
