Abstract
Precision attachments can be used in removable prosthodontics to improve the retention, stability and aesthetics of a prosthesis. Their use is not commonplace. However, when used appropriately, it is possible to construct a more satisfactory prosthesis where conventional partial dentures have previously been unsuccessful. The first of two articles will describe the different types of precision attachments, including intracoronal, extracoronal and radicular. Their relative indications, advantages and disadvantages will also be discussed. Clinical Relevance: Precision attachments are an option to increase retention in challenging prosthetic cases.
