We're Making History !

Clips from a Newspaper Article:

"Thermo Elastic Material used in dentures is a break-through for the Self-Help Generation:

A long-anticipated idea is now a reality in the dental world: patients can adjust their own dentures at home, thanks to a special thermo-sensitive design.

This technology, invented and patented by a Canadian dental technologist, is the first significant improvement to the way dentures are being designed, since the introduction of acrylic itself in the dental field by Dr. George W. Stryker in 1924!

In this 'Age of Self-Help', the greatest advantage for the informed consumer is the control over the fit and the tightness of their dental appliances. But apart from that, the majority of patients would already appreciate to get rid of the pain and the feeling of total helplessness that usually accompany the use of conventional dentures."

ADJUST YOUR OWN DENTURES ?

For the first time in history, your denture can be designed in such a way that some control over the fit and the comfort can be delegated to you, the denture wearer.

The new specialty acrylic, named VERSACRYL, can create any part of a denture to become adjustable, simply by using warm water.

Thermo- adjustable lower VERSACRYL flange locks into undercut.

It can be extended, for example, into an undercut to mechanically retain a denture, it can be used to produce repeatable thermo-relines, it can retain overdentures on implants, it can create special wings to stabilize lower dentures …and much more.

Of special interest to most people would be that VERSACRYL also entirely replaces "metal hooks" around the teeth on partial dentures and therefore never causes the notorious damage to the tooth enamel!

This "easy to use system" is based on a heat-sensitive, multi-purpose acrylic that provides more than two-dozen unique applications to improve dentures, by enhancing fit, esthetics and comfort.
Check 'Applications' to find the details.
