Retention measurement techniques: Kim et al [209] ‚used universal testing machine to compared the changes in retentive force of three commercially available attachment systems (Kerator blue‚ O-ring red‚ and EZ lock). The crosshead speed for the simulation was set at 60 mm/min. The lower mounting was seated on the fixed part of this machine‚ while the upper mounting was attached to the operation part. The specimen was placed in a position such that the force could be applied in a perpendicular
