A "flipper" or "stayplate" is defined as a single tooth or two teeth together. A "partial" is two or more teeth in any arrangement so as not to qualify as a" flipper / stayplate". |
|
|
|
|
We generally avoid and advise against fabricating Flippers / Stayplates with any of the flexible resin materials. |

Our materials for Flexible Partials: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Our standard flexible material is Lucitone® FRS™, which is a thermoplastic resin designed for use in the Success™ Injection System. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Lucitone® FRS™ is monomer-free and comes in four shades (Original = most common tissue color), Light Pink, Reddish Pink, Dark Pink (Ethnic), and it comes in clear resin. Call us for material shade samples. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We can also process flexible partials with other materials including Flex-Star V, DuraFlex, ThermoComfort, and Valplast. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Our 'standard' teeth are Dentsply Classics. They offer excellent natural appearance and exceptional wear-resistance that will make the patients happy while also meeting the price-point that most dentists are looking for. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
With regard to the shades, shape, and anatomy of the prosthetic teeth, we have other options available to be certain that we can match the patients' natural dentition. |
|

|
We pay close attention to the existing natural teeth so that we fabricate partials that are undetectable in the mouth yet comfortable and functional. |

Our Workmanship & Service: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Natural looking partials must take into consideration the patients existing natural teeth, as well as the contours of the natural tissue, and the patient's other subtle characteristics. We achieved this level of detail by simply paying attention to the details and not just "making another partial". |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Pay attention to the details is not difficult - it adds only a few minutes to a the time it takes to fabricate a partial, but it ensures that the partial will be undetectable in the patient's mouth. |
|
