Nylon prosthesis manufacturing
The main difference between nylon prostheses is the ease and flexibility of designs.
Nylon prosthesis manufacturing made from nylon. This is a material that is ideal for making removable dentures.
A prosthesis made of nylon is significantly superior to designs made of other materials in many ways.
Tooth construction made of nylon, returns its owners aesthetic beauty and a sense of comfort. Nylon characterized by high biocompatibility and absolute hypoallergenicity.
It does not absorb odors and moisture, therefore, pathogenic bacteria that cause inflammatory diseases of the oral cavity cannot multiply on its surface.
Nylon prostheses are recommended for patients who do not have abutments to fix fixed structures.
For the manufacture of removable dentures, the patented Valplast (Valplast) nylon prosthesis material is used.
Clasps are also made of the same material, so they are invisible against the background of the entire structure and in the oral cavity.
Manufacturing steps
The manufacture of nylon construction is carried out in two stages:
- Clinical.
- Laboratory.
Clinical stage
- Examination of the patient. Treatment of diseased teeth and removal of the dead.
- The choice of design.
- Taking impressions from the upper and lower jaws.
- Sending casts to the laboratory.
Laboratory stage
- According to the casts, models of the jaws are cast from plaster.
- Modeling.
- Trying on a wax template to refine the shape and color of artificial teeth.
- Fabrication of construction.
- Fitting and design correction.
- Fixation of the prosthesis in the patient's oral cavity.
The technology of manufacturing nylon prostheses
For the manufacture of dentures from nylon, a special device is required.
Typically, a thermal press for nylon prostheses is used for this purpose. It melts nylon granules, after which liquid nylon is poured into special forms.
The technique of manufacturing nylon structures is quite complicated and sometimes takes several weeks.
- Cast models of the jaws are cast.
- On plaster models, the boundaries of the future prosthesis are drawn with a chemical pencil. Clasps in nylon structures are a continuation of the prosthesis and go above the equator of the tooth and below the gum in the neck of the tooth.
- Waxing of the borders of the prosthesis.
- The final simulation. Modeling should be impeccable, due to the fact that nylon is quite difficult to process.
- Pressing nylon in a thermal press.
- After cooling it is done polishing structures using special polishing devices (milling cutters, circles, brushes).
Price
The cost of manufacturing nylon structures depends on such factors as the status of the clinic, production technology, and the amount of material.
Type of nylon prosthesis | Price, rub.) |
Nylon removable denture all over the jaw | 22000 |
One-jaw prosthesis with partial denture (from 1 to 3 teeth) | 15000 |
Partial removable denture made of nylon (8 to 14 teeth) | 20000 |
