Abstract: | - 1.A positive-locking posterior attachment for tooth-supported partial dentures has been described.
- 2.This attachment is limited in its application by the length of span of the pontics to be supplied and by the vertical length required in the most anterior pontic.
- 3.Where indicated, it reduces the number of attachments dependent upon either friction or resiliency of metal retainers.
