Teeth arrangement under consideration of hydrostatic stability range, with greater importance on aesthetics in anterior and stability of mandibular denture in posterior.
Following the easy set-up concept enables an easy build-up of any occlusal pattern.
Gingiva characterization for completion of the aesthetic appearance with VITAVM®LC composite material. The VITAVM®LC BASIC KIT and the VITAVM®LC GINGIVA KIT were used.
Following sand blasting and conditioning of the vestibular prosthesis polymer for joining, VITA VM LC was applied.
The thixotropic paste allows for convenient contouring and offers optimum stability prior to polymerization.
Light polymerization saves time. The color effect of the material can be seen directly during application. This facilitates the characterization.
VITAPAN®
The highly nuanced colors, high translucency and aesthetic appeal of VITAPAN® permit rehabilitation appropriate for Asian patients. Our patients are highly satisfied with the aesthetic results.

To optimize the suction efficiency of the mandibular prostheses, it is essential for the edges of the prosthesis to be ground off as well as possible. This guarantees occlusal stability of the prosthesis. A functional form of ready-made dentures is important for this.
