Abstract: Denture fixture for connecting a denture to an existing tooth in a patient's mouth. The denture fixture includes an anchorage permanently joined to the denture and retention means mounted to a tooth and formed to interlock with anchoring means extending from the anchorage. The anchoring means includes two projecting stems arranged in an approximately horizontal plane. One stem has an enlarged end for mating with an aperture in the retention means; the other stem mates with a groove on one side of the retention means.The apparatus has a low profile and is easily hidden from view. The denture is securely but flexibly positioned in the patient's mouth, is conveniently manufactured, and has no mechanism which can be obstructed by bits of food. The apparatus is not retained in position by forces exerted against the tooth and thus reduces wear on the tooth and the denture.
