Zirlux Acetal Partial Denture

A Zirlux Acetal partial denture is a resin-based partial denture made from a special copolymer that is semi-flexible when thin and more rigid as the resin becomes thicker. This makes it an ideal material for fabricating a variety of tooth-supported removable prosthetics. Since it absorbs virtually no water, the appliance is less likely to develop stains or odors. Acetal behaves like a much-improved version of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), only stronger and more flexible, allowing Acetal resin to be formed into a thinner, more comfortable removable restoration that your dental patient will love.

Zirlux Acetal partial frameworks are designed and milled from a void-free disk of copolymer using CAD / CAM Technology for a precise fit. Flexible Partial Dentures are tissue-borne; Zirlux Acetal resin is different because it is semi-flexible. Its strength allows the manufactured framework to be supported by the existing dentition, much like a metal framework. Clasps are made from the same resin material. They have elastic memory and are designed to engage securely into the natural undercuts of abutment teeth for maximum hold.

The millable copolymer material is available in VITA shades A1, A2, A3.5, B1, plus G2 (bleaching shade), and P1 (pink). These color choices allow for a wide range of color-matching options that work well in many situations and with different tooth configurations.

An appliance made from this resin can last up to 10 years, depending on parafunctional habits and patient care 

THERMAL COMPOSITE HYBRID RESIN

These are great for Unilateral or just a few teeth. 

A partial denture material with flex, that unlike conventional nylon materials can be easily repaired or relined. ULTRAflex™ partials with clear clasps offer optical clarity that blend naturally against existing teeth. It is allergy free (MMA, BPA, and silicone-free), requires no special equipment or injectors to process, and can be press-packed.

 Astron’s proprietary CLEARsplint® material has been highly regarded and trusted by dentists and labs for more than 20 years. There’s no better material for making nightguards and splints that alleviate pain and prevent further destruction of healthy dentition among bruxing and grinding patients. CLEARsplint nightguards are nearly invisible when worn and self-adjusting for increased patient comfort. Both varieties are amine and methyl methacrylate-free, so they will never yellow and eliminate MMA allergies
