The restoration of the lost structures can be achieved using conventional removal dentures, fixed dentures, skeletal prosthesis, skeletal prosthesis with attachments, telescopic system or dental implants. The creation of the dentures more difficult if the number of the lost teeth, result of decays or periodontal disease, is bigger. There are specific factors that interfere with an implant therapy. The treatment of partial edentulous space needs to always follow certain biologic principles. The removable partial denture with attachments is not considered a history treatment solution. It is more contemporain then ever in our society, more actual then the moment of its creation. There is an important number of patients who could benefit of this treatment option, on short term as well as on long term. Although, the lack of adequate knowledge, the overwhelming number of accessories available on the market, the multiple adjustments and the restorations, make the dentist hesitant in offering this solution of treatment to his patients. The aim of this paper is to offer a complex image of the existing attachments and also, a simplified approach on this clinical solution, things sustain also by a clinical case.
