In dentistry, a million dollar bend in an Adams clasp refers to a specific bend made in the clasp arm to provide additional retention and stability for a removable dental prosthesis. This bend is typically made at a 45-degree angle towards the occlusal surface of the tooth, creating a more secure grip on the abutment tooth. The term "million dollar bend" emphasizes the importance of this precise adjustment in ensuring the longevity and effectiveness of the clasp assembly.

To bend an Adams clasp, first, ensure you have the appropriate instruments, such as pliers and a bending tool.

I'd like to add to this question. The necklace is a men's chain necklace and it does say "14kt Italy" on the clasp. However, I scratched the clasp and the gold flaked off. The chain itself looks like gold. The clasp was quickly attracted to a magnet, however the chain was only slightly magnetic. I'm confused how this could be fake if it is stamped 14kt...
