ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a removable attachment for a partial denture having assembly with body member which is to be the connector body therein and a slider member. The assembly is provided with the body member including a slot having a relatively wide and a relatively narrow slot or recess, in which a corresponding portion of slider member can be slid, and a neck portion of slot, which has a major axis which is horizontal and at a right angle to the row of teeth, a slider member including a lock rod and a protruding member suitable for being retained in a notch of the body member and has an aperture which may be engaged by the lock rod. The slider member is retained in position by two protruders of which both have the function as a rigid latch when the wearer or user masticates any foods and another function as a spring loaded rod when the user pushes out the slider member with his fingertip, and of which one is integrally formed on the individual movable member having one surface corresponding to a portion of the mastication surface of a natural tooth, and the other one is fixed to said individual movable member by a suitable method, for example, such as welding, soldering and etc. and is spring-loaded about the body of the slider member, and by the hemisphere detents to receive two protruders.
