For many people, dentures are important and essential. As a prosthetic device, it aids to have a normal way of life. It provides a great benefit not just for aesthetic reasons but for eating and speaking better.
Most dentures are made to last for several years. If you learn proper care and apply the right dental habits you can ensure it lasts. But over time they are subject to normal wear and tear and may need to be replaced. A common occurrence however is the need for it to be relined sooner rather than necessitating a replacement. This is because most people’s gum line change with age and the longer dentures are worn. While the dentures itself are still okay, you may find that they no longer fit properly. When this happens dentures can slip or click with movement and can cause soreness to the gums as well as affect speech. Rather than replacing a complete denture which can be quite expensive, denture relining can be done to replace the inner portion that comes in contact with the gums with a new lining to make it fit better.
Denture liners are typically made of an elastic material that serves as a cushion for the gums. In the past common materials include phthalate- or alcohol-plasticized acrylics, silicone rubbers and polyurethane or vinyl polymers. They were functional yet had their own disadvantages. Some easily harden over time, do not bond well, and are not resistant to fungal growth, to name a few. They may necessitate relining in just a short time or may cause other or more complications instead.
As a result of continuous research to solve the above mentioned problems, Novus permanent resilient denture liner was created. Made of polyphosphazene, a semi-organic polymer, Novus does not harden, is resistant to fungus overgrowth, has low water absorption, bonds well to acrylic denture bases, and can be easily adjusted, polished and molded. Dental practitioners who have used Novus have received positive feedback from their patients. Dentures are made more comfortable hence chewing and speaking become more normal. It can also be used in new dentures for longer lasting use, a more functional fit and for ultimate comfort.
If you are one of many people looking for high quality and long lasting dentures request your dental practitioner for the Novus denture liner in your denture. Not only will it enhance your denture but your quality of life as well.
