Stud Dental Attachments Ball And Socket , Precision Attachment Removable Partial Denture

A ball and socket type of attachment in which one component is attached to an abutment or implant, and the other element is retained in the prosthesis

A spherical, resilient, adjustable stud attachment with vertical and rotational movement for retaining partial and complete overdentures

Principle                                                                                                                               

Take advantage of undercut elastic retainer was formed by distal ring-like metal cathode  which restoration on abutments  and expanding clumnar anode which in removable framework.

Function                                                                                                                               

Doctor and patient operate easy, retaining is good.

Indication                                                                                                                             

Free-end is missing or residual root to be restored cover-denture.
