[Magnetic retention in implantology].
The use of magnets in dentistry is not very common. The reason for this is, that the available room in the mouth allows only the use of very small magnets, and often the space between both magnets is too large. This leads to a poor retention. The development of new rare earth magnets offers now a retention comparable with the retention of precision attachments. Possibilities for the use of magnets in dental implantology are discribed.
