Enhancing Denture Durability:
The Superior Wear Resistance of Image APN®
This whitepaper covers the groundbreaking study conducted at the
University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio Dental School, Department of General Dentistry, by Dr. Ramon J. Baez, DDS, MPH.
The study,
“Evaluation of wear by tooth brushing of two brands of resin artificial teeth,”
provides compelling insights into the wear resistance of denture teeth, with a specific focus on Image APN®. This research underscores the unmatched durability and longevity of Image APN® denture teeth, making them the ideal choice for dental technicians seeking to produce premium dentures in their laboratory.
Introduction
Dental technicians play a pivotal role in creating dentures that not only meet but exceed patient expectations. Among the various factors that influence denture quality, wear resistance stands out as a key factor of long-term satisfaction. Patients rely on their dentures for daily activities, and as such, durability is of paramount importance.
The Study: Evaluating Wear Resistance
Dr. Ramon J. Baez and his team at the University of Texas conducted an extensive study to evaluate the wear resistance of two brands of resin artificial teeth, including Image APN®. The research aimed to simulate real-world conditions by subjecting denture teeth to tooth brushing, a routine oral care practice.
Key Findings
- Image APN® Denture Teeth Outperformed the Competition The study unequivocally revealed that Image APN® Denture Teeth exhibited superior wear resistance compared to the competing brand. Even under the rigorous conditions of simulated tooth brushing, Image APN® maintained their structural integrity.
- Uncompromised Esthetics and Functionality Image APN® not only withstood wear but also retained their esthetic quality and functionality. Doctors can confidently prescribe Image APN® and their patients can now enjoy dentures that not only look natural but also stand the test of time.
Implications for Dental Technicians
This research carries profound implications for dental technicians:
1. Enhanced Confidence Dental technicians can have unwavering confidence in the durability and longevity of Image APN®. This confidence translates into superior patient outcomes and satisfaction.
2. Reduced Need for Replacements: The wear resistance of Image APN® teeth reduces the need for frequent denture replacements, saving both time and resources for dental labs.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the study conducted at the University of Texas Health Science Center reaffirms Image APN® teeth as the benchmark for dental technicians to produce premium dentures. These denture teeth offer unmatched wear resistance, aesthetic excellence, and longevity. By choosing Image APN®, dental technicians can elevate their craft, deliver superior dentures, and enhance patient satisfaction.
For dental technicians committed to excellence, the choice is clear: Image APN®—a testament to quality and durability that transforms smiles and exceeds expectations.
