The use of precision attachments in a lower full arch rehabilitation with osseointegrated implants--a clinical report

A technique for restoration of a case of Kennedy Class V edentulous span was described. This situation is a long edentulous span bounded anteriorly by a weak support and considered as one of the most difficult situations to restore. Two osseointegrated screw implants were inserted in the edentulous span. Together with remaining natural teeth supported a full arch restorations. Three precision attachments were included in the restoration to allow movement of the remaining teeth and to allow broken stresses at where the prosthesis extended along the corners of the mouth.
