Flexible dentures are a prosthodontic solution for people who have one or more missing teeth. They are intended to restore functionality and improve aesthetics, thus bettering the patient’s wellbeing. They will ease eating and speaking, as well as boost confidence.
Flexible dentures differ from partial dentures in the type of material used for their fabrication. Namely, since flexible dentures are designed for long term usage, they are made from dental materials that can provide durability and comfort. Considering, flexible dentures are made from a thin thermoplastic, as opposed to fixed dentures made of a more rigid material.
CHROME PARTIAL DENTURE
Pindan Dental Laboratory designs chrome partial dentures to help improve the aesthetic and functional aspects of the patient’s oral health. They can be used both for the lower and upper jaw. Generally speaking, they last between 5 and 10 years but their longevity varies on a range of factors. The best candidates for chrome partial dentures are patients whose remaining teeth are in great condition – strong, healthy, and are unlikely to fall out anytime soon.
At Pindan Dental Laboratory, we strive to create chrome partial dentures that will seem as natural as possible. Our goal is to deliver a solution that will fit the patient’s jaw perfectly, in terms of aesthetics and functionality.
FLEXIBLE DENTURES BENEFITS
Flexible dentures are a common choice due to the level of comfort they provide. What is more, they are highly stable and reliable. The secret is in the flexible resin coating on the outer layer of the base which provides flexibility and successfully locks in the denture around the undercut of the jaw bone. In comparison to other orthodontic solutions, flexible dentures are lighter, and they look and feel more natural. Whether we are talking about full flexible dentures or flexible partial dentures, the benefits are the same:
- Restore functionality
- Improve aesthetics
- Strong and durable
- Provide greater comfort
DIAGNOSTICS WORKS
To create the best dentures for your patients, we advise our partners to use a diagnostic wax-up technique. The model created is the best communication tool between our dental lab technician and dental practice. It is the best representation of the patient’s mouth and as such enables us to create the most optimal flexible denture that will fit with their remaining teeth.
