1. Pre-preparation and Evaluation:
- Oral examination: The doctor conducts a comprehensive examination of the patient's mouth to assess the missing teeth, periodontal condition and occlusal relationship.
- Suitability Assessment: To determine whether the patient is suitable for restoration with flexible denture and to formulate a personalised restoration plan.
2. Digital design and fabrication:
- Mould taking: Use professional materials to obtain three-dimensional morphological data of the patient's mouth.
- Individualised design: Using digital design software, accurate design of flexible denture is carried out according to the data of mould taking and patient's needs.
- Fabrication: According to the design plan, use the high elasticity resin material to fabricate the denture.
3. Fitting and adjustment:
- Trial fitting: The doctor will let the patient try on the fabricated elastic denture to check its fit, comfort and functional recovery.
- Adjustment: According to the trial wearing situation, necessary adjustments will be made to ensure that the denture is perfectly adapted to the patient's oral environment.
4. Wearing and post maintenance:
- Wearing instructions: The doctor provides wearing instructions to the patient to ensure that the patient is able to wear and remove the denture correctly.
- Cleaning and Maintenance: Patients are required to clean their denture on a regular basis to keep it clean and hygienic and to avoid the growth of bacteria.
- Follow-up examination: Patients need to have regular follow-up examinations to allow the doctor to check the wear and tear of the denture, oral health, etc., and make appropriate maintenance and adjustments according to the needs.
