  • Microlaser welding techniques were employed, similar to conventional cup-yoke and sandwich-yoke types.
  • Evaluation of restoring force and retentive force for each new attachment type compared to usual magnetic attachments.

    • Main Results:

    • The split-pole and modified split-pole magnetic attachments demonstrated stronger restoring force compared to conventional types.
    • The cylinder-type magnetic attachment exhibited a weaker restoring force.
    • All developed attachments showed high corrosion resistance.

    Conclusions:

    • The newly developed magnetic attachments offer adjustable retention capabilities, suitable for diverse clinical scenarios and patient-specific requirements.
    • These attachments provide flexible retention performance, enabling more effective and widespread use in dental prosthetics.
    • The selective application based on abutment status and denture retention needs is facilitated by these new designs.
