I love Valplast partials. I am a former and retired dental hygienist and can tell you from experience they are fabulous and more dentists should be aware of them and know how to work with them.

Interesting video, however as a wearer if these, it'd be way more informative to see what can be done to these to "tighten" them once they've worn some. Mine are only 2 years old and they have become a "back up" set as I had to get another metal set made for every day and functional wear. These are/we're comfortable, however almost useless due to their sloppy fit. Anyone know where I can find info how to fix this issue??

Since no bottom mold was made, when making my upper valplast partial (7, 8, 9) my bottom teeth keep my hitting the back of the partial front teeth. This partial was over 900. And the dentist has said he has done all he can. I desperately need help. Where to go?

any tips on polishing.. I have a patient that feels the inner intaglio surface is rough against her palate and ridges.. and it is somewhat rough. Just use a brown rubber wheel? Any other options.. pumice/scotchbrite ?

I just got my Valplast partials and I am having such a hard time taking it off and putting it on . Does anyone have any videos on it . I'm so mad at my dentist Aspen dental for them not showing me anything.

is that a light pink color? How do you polish it what do you use to make it shine like that

I have the vaplast. I’m a little upset because the teeth don’t come down as far as my natural teeth. The clasp also covers half of my natural tooth so it looks like my gums come down half way on that tooth. My dentist said these things can’t be adjusted. I paid too much to be unsatisfied. 😞 Does anyone know if these things are true?

does valplast suitable for distal free end case? does the flexible aspect will cause alveolar resorption?
