Retention silicone to restore stability in removable partial dentures – a case study

Retention silicones can be used for temporary anchoring of removable dentures on root-anchored ball attachments. From a geriatric point of view, they offer the possibility of a quick and cost-effective improvement of the position stability and retention of the removable dentures. Clinical studies are however required to elucidate the long-term performance of these materials.
