Abstract
A large number of devices are frequently used in daily clinical practice as retainers for partial dentures, including clasps, telescopes and various attachments. However, in cases where there are few remaining teeth and the biological conditions associated with the oral cavity are bad, we have all had problems with the selection of retainers and the preservation of anchor teeth. In recent years magnetic attachments have been used for clinical cases like this. It is said that the retention of magnetic attachments does not deteriorate over time, and that this retainer minimizes harmful rotational and lateral forces on the anchor teeth.
I would like to report a case with one remaining tooth where I attempted to restore function using an over denture with magnetic attachments.
