ABSTRACT
Retention for a denture on a ramus frame implant is usually less satisfactory. The friction between the frame and denture is not reliable. Locking-type attachments require manual dexterity, which could be a problem for many patients. This article presents a technique of cementing the stud-type attachments to the ramus frame to convert the retention mechanism from one that uses the friction between the acrylic resin and ramus frame to a conventional resilient precision attachment. The retention can also be adjusted by changing the nylon inserts.
