DurAcetal®

It’s a perfect match! Natural-looking DurAcetal can be made to match your tooth color. It is strong, durable and more comfortable than conventional appliances. It is nonporous so it is bacteria- and stain-resistant (no odor!).

Why prescribe DurAcetal?

  • Stronger than acrylic: Strong enough for tooth supported appliances and maintains vertical dimension
  • Large shade selection: With 22 different tooth and tissue shades matched to the standard Vita Shade Guide, shade matching is easy.
  • More comfortable: DurAcetal is rigid, yet forgiving like natural dentition, making it ideal for temporaries, bridges, and partials. DurAcetal also flexes and clasps can be made to fit into a deeper undercut for better retention and enhanced comfort.
  • Biocompatible: DurAcetal is monomer free with no known allergic reactions.
  • Nonporus and stain resistant: DurAcetal is non-porous, naturally resisting stains and bacteria for better aesthetics and a longer life span.
