At first glance, “denture teeth” might seem like a, well, old topic. Both literally, because they’re usually associated with devices made for octogenarians, but also figuratively, because denture teeth often don’t get the press other products do.

At first glance, “denture teeth” might seem like a, well, old topic. Both literally, because they’re usually associated with devices made for octogenarians, but also figuratively, because denture teeth often don’t get the press other products do.

And yet, as this round-up shows, huge advances have been made in denture teeth. Qualities like esthetics, strength and longevity have increased exponentially, and the teeth are more technologically advanced than ever.

Mondial and Mondial i

Mondial® and Mondial® i denture teeth are designed to set the standard for exceptionally natural form and function. Both are CAD/CAM-fabricated using bilateral digitalization to make 100 percent identical pairing and zero dimensional deviation possible. They feature exclusive NanoPearl® technology, incorporating unique micro fillers, nano particles and a micro-hybrid reinforced polymer bead technology for unmatched toughness and resilience. Independent studies document a 50 percent higher abrasion resistance for these advanced materials versus conventional PMMA acrylic materials. The Mondial® line is said to be particularly well suited for anterior esthetics, as its three-layering technique creates an impressively natural appearance. The “i” in the Mondial® i name stands for many different things, including “implant.”  The line’s anatomical shape, larger molds and unsurpassed stress resistance make these denture teeth well suited for implant overdenture cases.

Myerson Special

Myerson Special anterior teeth are hand-characterized in 11 different steps to give them a natural look unmatched in other premium brands.

Tribos 501

The Tribos 501 Anterior teeth V & LV are designed with brilliant natural layering. The natural three-dimensional form of the tooth allows the technician to adjust the position without opening the interdental space too far, thus providing ideal conditions for individualization of the denture. With suitable adjustment of the gingival mask and characteristics, the form of the Tribos V & LV anterior teeth can be varied by as much as up to 30 percent. This gives a huge number of individualized dental forms. The unique tooth stratification of the Tribos V & LV, together with a discreet incisal edge, silky-smooth surface structure and striking opalescent effects make these teeth stand out from the crowd offering solutions for all your prosthetics problems.

Veracia SA

Shofu Dental has been producing denture teeth throughout Europe and Asia for more than 90 years. Veracia SA is a new, semi-anatomical denture tooth system composed of microfilled hybrid composite reinforced by layered glass. The homogenous nature of the material alleviates concern about fracturing of layers that can occur with other composite teeth. This gives the teeth excellent esthetics, outstanding durability, and exceptional bonding strength with the denture base. Enhancing the Veracia SA concept is the “Q3 Pack,” allowing for simultaneous set-up of four posterior teeth, greatly improving productivity and accuracy for even the lesser-trained lab technician. In the Q3 Pack, the teeth are separate within the template and, once removed, the teeth can be individually rotated or moved if necessary.
