The milled surface as a precision attachment

Dental Clinics of North America, 2004
The creation of paralleled, milled surfaces in natural or restored abutment teeth, coupled with removable partial denture castings that have optimal contact with these preparations, results in a path of insertion and removal that is controlled in a manner similar to one using conventional precision attachments. Because the milled surfaces are primarily

Retention and wear of precision-type attachments

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1983
I recision-type attachments are commonly used to enhance the retention and stability of overdentures. This not only adds considerably to the overall cost of the treatment but also increases the potential for detrimental forces to be transmitted to abutment teeth, thus reducing their longevity.
