Ivocap Upper Complete Denture

Maxillary / Upper Complete Denture which was made for a 74 year old male patient. The denture was fabricated using the SR Ivocap System by Ivoclar Vivadent. SR Ivocap is based on a special injection technique which produces highly accurate methyl methacrylate-based dentures. Compensation for chemical shrinkage is made possible by pressured feeding of additional material (inflowing material). This system can also be used in removable partial dentures, denture relines, orthodontic appliances and occlusal splints.
