[Comparative study of the most common prosthetic aids].
The two most often used attachments and anchors were each submitted to permanent load in an alternating bending machine. Removing force, removing performance and mobility in a vertical direction were measured after permanent load and compared with each other. All compound elements showed signs of wear and tear. The removing force decreased by approximately 25%, in Bona anchors by 60%, the removing performance was reduced by 20% on the average, but by 75% in Bona anchors.
