Online published on 26 August, 2016. Abstract Utilizing natural teeth to enhance support for prosthesis is not new in prosthodontics. Few teeth can be conserved in compromised edentulous ridge patients and be used to provide support to the prosthesis. The use of stud attachments allows the ability to the clinician to improve the retention of the prosthesis, thus allowing the patient to experience better comfort.
