Abstract: A denture connector is provided with a hollow cylindrical female member having a retainer plate embedded in a denture crown. A male member comprises a top planar surface having a lateral projection to which there is attached a retainer block having projecting fins on outer walls thereof. A boss depends from an undersurface of the top planar member and has a bore coextensive with a threaded recess in said undersurface of the top planar member. A threaded screw with a removable expandable sleeve thereon is threaded into the threaded recess to complete the male unit. The male unit is inserted into the female unit whereby a tolerance space exists between the outer diameter of the sleeve and the inner diameter of the female cylinder. The retainer block attached to the lateral projection has a space therein whereby the combination of space and the projector fins ensure firm embedment of the retainer block in denture material.
