2. They are affordable in price, are very aesthetic because the
material they are made is quite traslucent.
They are relatively easy to make, equipment to make them
accesible, processing times are short, have very good retention
in the mouth, are free of monomers,
( if you possess intoxicant acrylic prosthesis and the prosthesis
removed for a time after of fact).

3. Is nylon-based thermoplastic colored traslucent gum-like
allowing a complete camouflaging natural gum.
The nylon is manufactured that has less durability, and
color and becoming more porous as time passes. Support
on the parts can be with retainers or hooks.

4. FLEXIBLE PROSTHESES
Flexible prostheses
instead retainers have
the same material
(nylon translucent color
of the gingiva) that is
constructed in its
entirety, being more
aesthetic than metal
retainers (Figure 0.3)

5. Partial dentures retained in the mouth, retainers should
be used (slang hooks) on the teeth.
These retainers cobalt chromium prostheses are
metallic, so that they are unsightly (Figure 0.4).

7. For the type of material, you can adjust the spring rate to 0.5
mm. A flexible also withstands bumps and drops, with a
high modulus of elasticity and low fatigue limit.
The flexibility of the material to be in an aqueous medium
increases to 37 degrees allowing it to be softer texture.

8. ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES
They are much lighter than acrylic Not be used in all cases (In a
prostheses and cobalt chrome lower complete dentures by their
low weight.
Not used as monomers for Repairs are difficult because the
making them, not irritating after acrylic does not bind chemically
being polymerized and in use. with the polishing should give
much more polished than other
types of prostheses.
Are thinner and therefore more Some polyamides change color
comfortably than others over time (cheaper brands).
Can be used in very thin It is said that evil distribute
thickness chewing forces and others say
the opposite
Are highly aesthetic and Functionally cobalt chrome
accessible at its best price prosthesis, since it has greater
stability.
Biocompatible

9. *Valplast™
Partials Valplast® International was founded over 60 years in the
U.S.A. As an alternative to skeletal based prostheses with metal
hooks.
-The partial Valplast TM are pulling, bending and even bend
without breaking, fracture or splitting, maintaining its shape and
its elastic memory.
-With the passage of time does not become brittle and not even
spend.

10. *FLEXITE ®
Flexite is a new material with
more than 40 years in
dentistry.
The resin is made from
biocompatible thermoplastic
nylon allows the material is
the color of the gum. Its tear
resitance is guaranteed
