Abstract EN
This study was performed to evaluate the effect of using attachment on implant supported distal extension lower partial overdenture.
Ten lower kennedy class II partially edentulous patients were selected to receive implant at second molar area, then patients were divided into 2 groups according to the implant superstructures either (dome shaped-or-ball and cap attachment).
Patients of both groups receive removable partial denture of the same design.
Patients were followed up for one year both clinically and radiogarphically.
The results showed no statically difference between the treatment plans.
It could be concluded that Tooth-implant supported partial denture with or without attachment may be reasonable and simple solution for Kennedy class II partial denture.
Ball and socket attachment could be considered as more favorable solution than the dome shaped one regarding prosthetics function and patients satisfaction.
