Elasti-Grip
The Elasti-Grip Partial Denture is a unique acrylic-based denture that utilizes soft silicone gaskets that hug around the remaining teeth. This system provides patients a with gentle and effective retention which is comfortable to wear, because it prevents stress to abutment teeth which are normally caused by metal partials. The Elasti-Grip Partial is an ideal choice for patients with a few isolated, mobile, or periodontically involved teeth. The Elasti-Grip Partial is non-metal, which provides superior aesthetics and creates a natural looking smile. These partials also restore the natural gum line of patients who suffer severe periodontal symptoms. Since the Elasti-Grip is acrylic-based, it is easy to add teeth and can even be converted into a full denture.
Case Materials Required
Upper and lower impressions or models
- Unique elastomeric band
- Flexible retention without clasps
- Preserves existing dentition
- Restores natural gum line
- Highly esthetic and comfortable
Removable partial dentures
No special tooth or tissue preparation is needed for the Virginia Partial system. Simply send a master cast poured promptly and carefully from an alginate impression along with opposing model and bite registration.
The best impression material to use is polyvinyl or alginate. The powder should be gently stirred from the bottom of the container to the top to redistribute the heavier elements that control shrinkage in the impression. The model should be poured promptly. Most other impression materials compress the tissue too much leading to increased adjustment time.

Acrylic Temporary (Stayplate) with Clear Clasps
When it comes to Acrylic Temp Partials we are always constructing the most functional and aesthetic partials available. Why settle for metal wrought wire clasps when you can prescribe a more pleasing clear-clasp design. The clear-clasp design merges in with the abutment teeth and gum tissue to create a natural complete looking smile. No matter how temporary, patients no longer need to suffer with unsightly clasps. Acrylic Temp Partials are the clear option for the natural and comfortable looking smile.
DurAcetal
For partial denture patients, it is hard to match the beauty of a DurAcetal tooth-colored clasp. DurAcetal is a strong, durable, and stain-resistant resin that provides patients with absolute comfort. An advantage of DurAcetal clasps is that they can be added to acrylic, nylon and chrome partials.
Advantalock Denture
Would you believe that you could get all the benefits comparable to an implant case in a removable partial denture? It’s true! The newly designed Advantalock Partial gives you this. It will completely change the way you look at partial dentures. The Advantalock Partial was designed to finally provide partial denture patients with excellent retention, security, and esthetics.
The Advantalock Partial is a two-piece partial system. The Advantalock system has two main components: the base assembly with a Hader bar cast on the framework, and the Advantalock clip. There are many benefits of this two-piece system. First, it has eliminated the need for any metal or thermoplastic clasps, leaving your patient with a truly natural-looking smile. Plus, unlike the sometimes difficult-to-adjust thermoplastics, the Advantalock design uses an acrylic resin with a Vitallium framework. This makes it much easier to adjust. Additionally, patients can enjoy eating any type of food without fear of the partial being dislodged. The Advantalock Partial also practically eliminates a patient’s problems with food trapping underneath his or her partial dentures.
