📝Abstract

Lack of adequate retention of mandibular denture is one of the common problems associated with complete denture therapy. Retention of natural teeth and use of attachments can increase the patient compliance by providing good retention to the complete denture. Magnetic attachments for overdenture abutments are good solutions for providing the patient with a retentive and stable complete denture. This article describes the use of magnetic attachments for root supported mandibular overdenture.

Key Words: Overdenture, Magnetic Attachment, Complete Denture.
