title: Unilateral semi-precision removable partial denture utilizing Bredent VKS-SG attachment system.
abstract: There are various options for removable partial dentures. A removable partial denture fills in the space created by missing teeth and restores the smile. The semi-precision attachment is a way to clasp a removable partial denture (RPD) to existing abutment teeth in order to provide greater stability and retention without having a visible clasp assembly. In this report, we show how the Bredent VKS-SG ball attachment provides balanced support to a Kennedy Class III edentulous area, maximizing esthetics, stability and retention with low maintenance and exceptional patient comfort.
