A clinical comparison of three types of resin-retained cast metal prostheses.
A preliminary clinical trial comparing three types of resin-retained cast metal FPDs was conducted. Micromechanical retainers were found to be more retentive than macromechanical retainers. The retention values in this investigation were in agreement with similar studies, but longitudinal studies are still desirable.
