What’s New
HydroPak
Our patent-pending method for processing denture acrylic uses 500 PSI of dynamic, directional, hydraulic pressure to yield a better-fitting, more durable product. In fact, HydroPak improves the fit so much that we use it for all full and implant denture cases, exclusively. Check back soon for the full story behind this innovation.
