Whether you’ve had gaps in your smile for years, or you are awaiting the healing process to complete after dental implant surgery, a newer option has emerged as an aesthetically pleasing alternative to traditional partial dentures. With VisiClear™ partial dentures, dentists can provide patients a high-quality prosthetic that has the strength and flexibility to restore proper function to your smile.
What is VisiClear?
VisiClear is a partial denture framework made with a metal-free, thermoplastic material. Patients and dental professionals alike marvel at their level of comfort and how easy they are to clean and maintain. For patients who don’t want to go any length of time with gaps in their smile, this newer type of denture is great as an intermediary option.
Traditional partials utilize metal clasps to secure the appliance in place. A major benefit to VisiClear is how the clasps are translucent and made from a thin, fracture-resistant material designed with your comfort in mind. Additionally, the acrylic material is biocompatible, keeping health at the forefront of treatment.
Good Candidates for VisiClear
While dental implants provide a comprehensive solution to missing teeth, not everyone is a great candidate for that procedure. Those without the appropriate jaw strength to support implants would have to undergo additional procedures to bolster the strength; a compromise many don’t have the time to make.
VisiClear offers a sturdy alternative for these patients. The lightweight, elastic material has the strength to withstand the force from a typical bite, while the invisible design of the clasps makes this a more aesthetically ideal option in comparison to conventional partials. The clasps can be adjusted to affix to any tooth for a secure fit.
Patients healthy enough to receive dental implants need a temporary solution while recovering from implant placement surgery. Typically, the recovery time from dental implant surgery is three to four months before an implant-supported prosthetic can be added. VisiClear offers a great way for maintaining normal oral function before permanent restorations are completed.
An Affordable and Convenient Tooth Replacement Option
This tooth replacement device is designed to provide a natural looking and durable alternative to traditional dentures and partials, without the expense of some of the other treatments. The manufacturing process has proven to be efficient as well in that the fabrications don’t tend to require multiple appointments for adjustments.
