The Double-Tilt Precision Attachment Case-which is the subject of this book-was conceived in 1906 and has the longest and best track record of any full arch dental treatment option. This option is the ideal choice in cases where fixed bridgework is impossible to accomplish or has a poor prognosis. The advantages of the Double-Tilt Precision Attachment Case are many: custom esthetics, patient comfort and confidence, maintainable periodontal health, longevity of abutments, the ability to utilize both natural teeth or implant abutments, the ability to retain weak abutments without jeopardizing overall success, and the ability to compensate for changes that occur in the mouth over time. The Double-Tilt Precision Attachment Case also does not require denture powder or paste for retention and the attachment components rarely require replacement-even after decades of continuous function 24-hours-a-day!

By definition, the term precision denotes ‘the quality or state of being precise’. Misconceptions about the use of intracoronally retained prosthesis have discouraged many practitioners to use them in their dental practices. However the prosthodontist who employs this form of treatment quickly learns of its benefits in providing patients with an esthetic prosthesis. It offers considerable advantages in dentistry because of their flexibility Precision attachments are sometimes said to be a connecting link between the fixed and removable type of partial dentures because it incorporates features common to both types of construction. Precision attachments retain and attach a removable bridge or partial denture on natural teeth vital or non-vital. Some serve as retainers for full dentures (over dentures) where few abutments remain. The main purpose of each precision attachment besides retention is its concealment within or under a restoration as an esthetically better alternative to a visible clasp retainer
