Abstract: An improved system for anchoring a partial or full denture in place provides one of the anchor members of the usual pair of matingly interconnecting anchor members in two separate parts, rather than a single unitary part, so that the base part thereof can be embedded permanently in the tooth-holding material of the denture and the other part thereof, which is the matingly interconnecting part, is adapted to matingly interconnect with the other anchor member of the pair of such anchor members in the usual manner, the two separate parts being themselves matingly interconnected, as by screw threads, for quick and easy separation and engagement of a replacement matingly interconnecting part when necessary because of wear.
