The invention relates to a cap for removable dental prosthesis, a removable prosthesis and a process for the production of a removable prosthesis; the cap for removable dental prosthesis is suitable to be anchored by one or more implants which consist of an artificial root (1) and an abutment (4), said cap (6) being adapted to be received in the prosthesis (8) to be fit on said abutment (4) for defining a stable but removable constraint which allows the detachment of the prosthesis from the abutment; the cap is provided with a threaded outer surface (68).

A feature for retaining a denture on dental implants is shown and described. An anchor for receiving prongs is threaded to each of one or more implants in the mouth. A denture having prong passages is placed onto jaw bone or overlying tissue, above the implant. The anchor occupies an opening in the denture. With the denture in place and with the prong passages aligned with prong reception sites of the anchor, a pronged denture connector is installed such that the prongs pass through the prong passages of the denture and penetrate the prong reception sites of the anchor. The prongs are frictionally secured in place by an elastic member lining the prong passages of the denture and constricting over inserted prongs. Optionally, the elastic members include a bridge securing one elastic member parallel to the other. The denture may comprise synthetic resin reinforced by a metallic reinforcing bar.

A fixed, detachable dental attachment device comprising a cap for securing a dental appliance, a ring, and an abutment to attachment to a tooth root or implant. Also described herein are methods of securing a dental appliance in a subject's mouth by means of the dental attachment device. Further described herein is a dental attachment device for immediate load on a provisional denture and then incorporated into the final restoration
