Estetic

• heat-curing polymer
• owing to excellent plasticity and press mouldability does not cause raising of the occlusion
• can be combined with soft elastic foundations
• requires short polymerization time
• characterized by low water and saliva absorption, owing to which it does not change its color
• transparency of acrylic mass let to show natural color of user`s oral mucosa
• complies with the requirements of international standard EN ISO 1567:1995

Mixing proportions:

Recommended powder/solvent mixing proportions - 2:1 w/w

Direction for use and polymerising:

Pour an appropriate amount of the solvent into a vessel and gradually add powder up to complete saturation with the solvent. Stir for several seconds - solution should have the consistency of thick cream. Cover the vessel tightly and keep under cover for ca.10 - 15 min (depending on the temperature of environment). Higher temperature accelerate and lower decelerate initial swelling. Check plasticity with a spatula - if we consider the acrylic mass to attain the highest plasticity level (just after the phase of "drawing thread") the material is ready for moulding. Fill the room temperature mould covered with isolating agent with the plastic mass and form under gradually increased pressure until metal/metal contact occurs. Leave the mould under pressure for minimum 3 to 5 minutes, then place and clamp in a polymerisation frame. Long plasticity time allows simultaneous moulding even in some moulds.
Immerse completely the mould in the frame in boiling water and maintain the boiling temperature for 20 min. Turn off the heat source, cool the mould to room temperature and open. Remove the polymerised denture, then process and polish according to commonly used methods.
In case of very thick and extensive dentures, immerse the mould in cold water, then lead to the boiling point and proceed as described above.

The manufacturer recommends the following guidelines to be included in instructions for the patients:

• dentures should be washed with a tooth-brush and toothpaste or any other agents especially designed for the care of such products,
• don`t soak them in heavily alkali or acid substances in order to avoid damaging of surface,
• damaged dentures should be repaired only by a dental technician or a dentist,
• the adjustment of dentures should be regularly checked.
