    This simulation study was conducted to evaluate the use of ERA white attachment versus Ball attachment for mini dental implants retained mandibular overdenture regarding retentive forces and forces transmitted to the peri-implant bone during overdenture loading. This in vitro study was carried out on duplicated educational mandibular acrylic model, and experimental overdentures. In the intraforaminal region, four mini dental implants were installed in each cast. One cast received mini implants with ERA white attachment, while the other received mini implants with ball attachment. The female attachment components were picked up in the overdenture. Strain gauges were installed, one on the distal surface of each of the two distal implants. Universal testing machine was used to apply standardized static load unilaterally on the lower righ..
