Abstract:
Attachment-retained removable partial dental prostheses (RPDPs) may be lost. Although in such situations, the RPDP should be remade, no method has yet been described for replacing lost attachment-retained RPDPs. This report describes a method for fabrication of a replacement for a lost maxillary RPDP using ball-attachment analogs.
