Common Questions About
Sunflex® Partials

How long will the procedure take?
Sometimes a partial can be delivered in as little
as two visits, but usually the average is four visits.

Will it hurt?
Partial dentures fabricated from Sunflex® are non-
invasive so there is minimal discomfort. Sometimes
preparations to the abutment teeth are necessary, but
there is little discomfort associated with the procedure.

How long will my Sunflex® Partial last?
Sunflex® Partials are designed to last a lifetime. Should modifications be needed as time goes by, due to natural changes in your mouth, your Sunflex® Partial can be modified rather than replaced.

Can I wear my dentures at night?
Some designs of partial dentures may not be
recommended for overnight use. Ask your dentist.

Do I have to put my denture in water
when I am not wearing it?
In order to keep your Sunflex® Partial looking and feeling
like new, we recommend (when you are not wearing it)
that you keep it immersed in water or denture cleaner.

Will I have difficulty chewing?
Some foods may never be easy to chew with dentures, but a properly designed and fitted partial, combined with Sunflex® Partial’s durability and superior adaptation will give you the best chewing experience of any denture material available.

Will the partial change how I speak?
Sometimes it is difficult to speak clearly with missing teeth; therefore, the partial may improve your speech clarity. If you find it difficult to pronounce certain words, do not worry. Over time you will become accustomed to speaking properly with your Sunflex® Partial denture.

Can I make minor adjustments to my
partial denture?
We strongly recommend that you do not alter your partial
in any way. If adjustments need to be made, please see
your dentist.

How do I care for my Sunflex® Partial denture?
