Comparison of relative deflection in a fixed partial prosthesis with a soldered joint and an semi-fixed partial prosthesis with a precision attachment under simulated occlusal forces

Thesis (M.Sc.D.)--Boston University School of Graduate Dentistry, 1973. Prosthodontics. / Bibliography included. / Precision and semi-precision attachments have been
utilized in fixed partial prostheses for many years. A
review of the dental literature reveals a lack of clinical
and laboratory information and their use in specific
situations therefore must have been empiricly established .
The purpose of this research was to contribute to the
establishment of either a sound rationale for the use of
precision attachments or, conversely, to an indictment of
them based on factual testing under simulated clinical
conditions. [TRUNCATED]
