A removable appliance made of a thermoplastic polymer that is molded to fit the jaw without residual monomer. It can be partial, complete, or conditionally removable. Indications, service life, and care are determined by the clinical picture. The decision on which appliance to choose is made by the dentist after examination and diagnostics.
Answer a few questions in the calculator below — and our administrator will send you an estimate for your case before your visit.
What the cost consists of
The price depends on the number of teeth the appliance replaces, the material chosen, and whether any preparation of the oral cavity is needed before prosthetics. Impressions, try-ins, and post-delivery adjustments are priced separately. The exact amount is given after an examination: how much a thermoplastic denture costs in Almaty is determined individually, so an estimate is prepared at the consultation for each specific case.
Different materials differ in rigidity and elasticity, and this determines which construction is suitable in a particular case.
The polyamide base is the most flexible of thermoplastics. The base and clasps are cast from a single material, making the structure thin and following the relief of the prosthetic bed. Nylon is harder to polish and rebase, and over time it can absorb dyes. The doctor considers it for partial tooth loss when a flexible structure without metal elements is important.
Polyoxymethylene is a thermoplastic noticeably stiffer than nylon. It flexes less under chewing load and is available in tooth-colored shades, so bases and clasps of partial dentures are made from it. The edge of the base requires precise finishing. The doctor considers acetal when the denture needs a stable shape and support on the remaining teeth.
A dense and resilient thermoplastic used for both bases and clasps. It holds its shape well under repeated loads and contains no monomer. With a thin mucosa, the base border may cause chafing, so the doctor checks the denture edge especially carefully at the try-in. Polypropylene is considered for partial and complete tooth loss.
An acrylic polymer supplied ready-made and formed by injection molding, without mixing powder and liquid. Therefore, unlike conventional acrylic resin, it contains no free monomer. It is stiffer than nylon, polishes better, and can be repaired and rebased. The doctor considers it when a rigid base is needed and a reaction to monomer rules out conventional acrylic.
At the first appointment, the dentist examines the oral cavity, assesses the condition of the abutment teeth and mucosa, and orders imaging if necessary. Based on the results, a treatment plan is drawn up and the material is chosen. The patient is told how long the work will take and what stages it involves.
How a thermoplastic denture is made: the stages, impressions, try-ins — it begins with taking impressions. Impressions are taken from both jaws to accurately capture the relief of the dental arch and mucosa. The impressions are sent to the laboratory, where plaster models are made from them.
On the model, the technician shapes the base and the boundaries of the future appliance. At this stage, the location of the defect, the bite height, and the characteristics of the mucosa are taken into account. The finished wax composition is approved by the dentist before casting from the chosen material.
The finished denture is tried in the oral cavity. The dentist checks the fit, boundaries, occlusion, and retention. If there are areas that press or interfere, they are adjusted. After the try-in, a date is set for delivery of the appliance.
At the appointment, the denture is delivered to the patient, who is given recommendations on care and getting used to it. In the first weeks, adjustments may be needed: the dentist polishes down areas that rub. The adaptation period is individual and depends on the condition of the oral cavity and the type of appliance.

A removable thermoplastic denture is made without monomer and without lengthy polymerization. The material is softened at high temperature and molded under pressure. The base comes out dense and flexible.
A thermoplastic denture is a removable appliance whose base is cast from granules of a thermoplastic polymer. The granules are heated until they become pliable, then injected into a mold under pressure. This method is called injection molding. An acrylic base is made differently: powder is mixed with liquid, placed in a flask, and polymerized. Free monomer remains in the acrylic mass and can leach out of the finished appliance. Thermoplastic has no monomer — none is added at the mixing stage, because there is no mixing stage as such. The polymer is already synthesized at the factory, and the clinic receives ready-to-use raw material. Molding takes place at temperatures above 200 °C, but the material itself retains its shape after cooling. The base comes out dense, without pores or microvoids. It is this density and the absence of monomer that distinguish it from acrylic. Thermoplastics vary in rigidity: some grades flex, others are almost as stiff as acrylic. This depends on the clinical picture and on which grade the dentist selects.
| Parameter | Thermoplastic | Acrylic |
|---|---|---|
| Monomer | None | Remains free |
| Molding | Injection molding | Mixing and polymerization |
| Base porosity | Dense, pore-free | Microvoids possible |
| Flexibility | Depends on the brand | Rigid |
| Repeat relining | Limited | Possible |
| Repair after fracture | More difficult | Well-established |
Free monomer is the residue of an incomplete reaction. In an acrylic base it can leach out and come into contact with the mucosa. In some people this causes burning, redness, and dryness. Thermoplastic contains no monomer, so this kind of reaction does not occur with it. This does not mean the appliance suits everyone: allergy is possible to colorants or to the polymer itself. The dentist decides after examination. The absence of monomer is not the material's only property. A thermoplastic base absorbs less liquid and odors because it has no pores. Care is simpler: plaque is brushed off rather than scrubbed out of microcracks. But the material has a downside as well. It is softer than acrylic, so relining and repair are more difficult. A fracture of the base is harder to fix, and sometimes the denture has to be remade. Rigidity is chosen according to the situation: where support is needed, a soft base will not do. The dentist assesses all of this during examination, not by the material's name alone.
The appliance does not suit everyone. The decision depends on the clinical picture: how many teeth are missing, how the remaining teeth are positioned, and the condition of the gums and bone. Below are the situations in which it is considered.
With partial tooth loss, a thermoplastic denture fills the gap where a bridge cannot be placed. For example, when two or three adjacent teeth are missing but the neighboring teeth are healthy and you do not want to grind them down for abutments. Or when the last teeth in the arch are missing and a conventional bridge simply has nothing to rest on. A flexible appliance is retained on the remaining teeth by clasps that fit into natural undercuts and require no preparation. This matters if the enamel is thin or fillings are already present. With distal extension defects, the denture redistributes the load onto the remaining arch. The dentist assesses how the abutment teeth are positioned: mobile or severely tilted teeth may not support the appliance. In that case, another option is considered. With short defects in the anterior region, a flexible denture is inconspicuous: the material transmits light and has no metal hooks. The bite is also evaluated. If the antagonist teeth close in an unusual way, the base is adjusted according to the impression. It depends on the clinical picture: for one patient the appliance works for years, for another it needs adjustment within a month. The dentist decides after examination and imaging.
When there are no teeth at all, a thermoplastic denture is one option for removable restoration. It is considered if the patient cannot tolerate rigid acrylic or complains of irritation under the base. The flexible material is more elastic, sits closer to the mucosa, and puts less pressure on individual areas. But this does not mean it suits everyone. In an edentulous lower jaw, retention depends on the bone and on how pronounced the alveolar ridge is. If it is flattened, the denture will shift during speech and chewing — a different approach is needed here, sometimes with implant fixation. In the upper jaw, on the contrary, the flexible base covers the palate and is held by suction if the impression is taken accurately. The doctor checks for bony protrusions that could interfere. With complete edentulism, it matters how the patient closes the jaws and whether they have prior experience with removable appliances. A first denture is harder to adapt to: the tongue and cheeks must get used to the new volume. Repeat fabrication is easier.
The lifespan of a flexible removable denture is not fixed. It depends on the condition of the tissues, care, and how often the fit changes. A reline extends the life of the appliance.
A thermoplastic denture has no rigid framework. It is held by close adaptation to the mucosa and natural teeth. Over time, this adaptation changes. Bone tissue under the base resorbs faster than with implant support. The gums and mucosa respond to pressure differently. For one person, the appliance fits snugly for several years; for another, it loosens within months. It depends on the clinical picture: how many teeth were lost, the height of the alveolar ridge, and whether there are chronic conditions. Care also matters. Plaque, food debris, and improper storage accelerate material wear. Thermoplastic does not wear down like acrylic, but it loses elasticity. Microcracks appear unnoticed. They are visible on examination, sometimes only under magnification. Service life is not measured by a single number. On average, a denture is replaced every few years, but the exact timing is determined by the doctor. If it no longer holds, presses, or rubs — that is a reason to come in, not to wait for a scheduled replacement.
A reline is not a repair or a replacement of the denture. The procedure restores precise adaptation of the base to the tissues of the denture-bearing area. The doctor assesses the condition of the mucosa, checks occlusion and borders. If necessary, takes an impression. Then the laboratory applies a new layer of material to the inner surface. There are two approaches. A clinical reline is done right in the office, in one visit, using fast-setting materials. A laboratory reline is more precise: the impression is sent to the technician, and the base is remade taking the relief into account. The doctor decides which method to choose. It depends on how much the tissues have changed, how long ago the denture was made, and whether there are defects in the base. Sometimes the procedure is combined with border adjustment. If the appliance is worn unevenly, the old layer is removed first, then a new one is applied. The patient feels the difference immediately: the denture sits tighter and stops pressing. But this does not eliminate regular check-ups. A reline does not make the denture eternal. It restores the fit, not the material. When the base loses its properties, replacement is indicated.
A thermoplastic denture is not afraid of water and hardly absorbs dyes. The material is soft, so handling requires care. Below is daily care and what not to do.
Clean the denture twice a day, just like your natural teeth. A soft brush and a non-abrasive paste are the basics. Use gentle strokes without pressure: soft materials scratch easily, and plaque builds up in those scratches. After meals, remove the appliance and rinse it under running water. Once a week, treat it with a special denture tablet: dissolve it in water according to the instructions and leave the denture in for the specified time. Whitening toothpastes are not suitable — they wear down the surface. For cleaning the base, brushes with a double-sided head are convenient: one side for the inner surface, the other for the outer. Your natural teeth should also be brushed separately, especially near the clasps. It depends on the clinical picture: with increased salivation or a tendency to tartar, the doctor may suggest a different regimen. It is best not to change the routine on your own. If plaque cannot be removed at home, a professional cleaning at the dentist is needed.
Outside the mouth, store the appliance in a closed container with clean water or a special solution. It should not simply be kept on a shelf or in a napkin: the material dries out and changes shape. Change the water daily, wash the container with soap and dry it. Once a week, it is helpful to soak the denture in a cleaning solution to remove plaque from hard-to-reach areas. After every meal, remove it, rinse it with cool water and rinse your mouth. If that is not possible, simply rinse your mouth with water and put the appliance back in. Before bed, remove the denture, clean it and put it in the container — this lets the gums rest. In the morning, rinse it and put it back in. If an odor appears that does not go away after cleaning, or if the color of the base changes, see your doctor: this may be a sign of fungal plaque. The service life depends on the clinical picture and how carefully you care for it; if it wears out or breaks, the doctor decides whether to repair the appliance or make a new one.
The difference between removable systems is not immediately obvious, but becomes clear at an appointment: it lies in how the denture is held in place, what it is made of, and what happens underneath it to the gums and supporting teeth.
| Feature | Thermoplastic | Cast partial (metal framework) | Implant-supported |
|---|---|---|---|
| Material | Thermoplastic | Metal and acrylic | Metal, ceramic |
| Retention | Saddle fit, against the gum | Clasps, attachments | Attachments, screws |
| Support | Natural teeth | Natural teeth | Dental implants |
| Removability | Removable | Removable | Removable or implant-retained |
| Bulk | Takes up a lot of space | More compact | Compact |
A cast partial denture is supported by a rigid metal framework that covers the palate or runs along the lower jaw. The framework distributes chewing load to the supporting teeth through clasps or attachments. A thermoplastic appliance is designed differently: its frame is made of a flexible material that extends onto the gums and into undercuts, and it contains no metal. Because of this, there is also no framework covering the palate. However, the base is thicker and takes up more space in the mouth. A cast partial denture is more rigid and flexes less during chewing. Thermoplastic bends, and this property both helps retention and limits the load it can transmit. The clasps of a cast partial denture weaken over time and are bent back into place. A thermoplastic denture is held by a tight fit, so when bone resorption occurs beneath it, a gap forms. What will be suitable in a particular case is decided by the doctor after examination and imaging.
An implant-supported denture rests not on the gums but on titanium supports embedded in the bone. Therefore, it does not press on the mucosa and does not shift when speaking. Chewing load passes through the implant into the bone, as with natural teeth. A thermoplastic appliance transfers pressure to the gums and to any remaining teeth. Implants require surgery, time for osseointegration and sufficient bone volume. Their position is planned using cone-beam CT data, and impressions are taken with a 3Shape intraoral scanner. A thermoplastic denture is placed without surgery and on the day of the visit, but it remains removable. Implant treatment costs more and takes longer, but it does not cover the palate and does not rest on the gums. The choice depends on the clinical picture: the condition of the supporting teeth, bone volume and general health. Sometimes it is more reasonable to combine both solutions, and the doctor also decides this.
A new appliance in the mouth changes the usual sensations. Speech and taste react most noticeably. Let's break down exactly what happens and what determines how quickly you adapt.
A removable appliance takes up space in the oral cavity. The tongue, lips, and cheeks are used to a certain volume, and the appearance of the base changes articulation. In the first days, sounds may be unclear, especially sibilants and whistling sounds. This is not a speech defect but a reaction to a new obstacle. Thermoplastic material is more flexible than acrylic, so the base is thinner and does not have a rigid palate in the classic sense. The tongue finds a new position faster. But the speed of adaptation depends on the clinical picture: how many teeth are missing, for how long, and whether there is prior experience wearing removable dentures. If a person has worn an acrylic denture before, adaptation to a thermoplastic one is often easier. If this is the first appliance, the adjustment period may take longer. The doctor assesses diction at the try-in and adjusts the base borders if needed. You should not file down or bend the denture yourself — this can compromise retention and damage the material.
Taste is perceived by receptors on the tongue, palate, and mucosa. When a denture covers part of the palate, the area of contact with food changes. A thermoplastic appliance usually covers a smaller area than an acrylic one because it does not require a bulky base for rigidity. This can keep more taste zones exposed. But changes cannot be completely avoided: any removable denture is a foreign body, and the receptors adapt to it gradually. In the first weeks, food may seem less salty, sweet, or flavorful. This is a temporary phenomenon related to the pressure of the base on the mucosa and the change in tongue position during chewing. In some people, taste does not change at all. It all depends on individual sensitivity and the size of the appliance. If discomfort persists for a long time, it is worth telling the doctor: sometimes the cause is borders that are too high or insufficient retention. Adjusting the borders often restores normal taste perception.
Complaints of burning, dryness, and redness under a denture are often attributed to the material. Let's break down where the cause really is a reaction to acrylic or metal and where it is something else.
An acrylic base does not polymerize completely. Residual monomer methyl methacrylate leaches out of the material gradually, and the mucosa responds to it with contact inflammation. The picture is typical: persistent erythema under the base, burning, sometimes small erosions, and an imprint along the denture border. Symptoms persist for more than a day and do not go away after a short break from wearing the appliance. But a similar reaction can also occur to colorants, to remnants of impression material in the pores, and to fungal flora under a poorly fitting base. The history helps distinguish: if the burning started after fitting a new denture and recurs with every acrylic appliance, the material becomes the leading explanation. Thermoplastics contain no monomer, so this scenario does not apply to them. The doctor decides after examination and, if necessary, after consultation with an allergist. You should not switch to another material on your own based on internet descriptions.
Metal components in a removable prosthesis are clasps, while in a fixed prosthesis they are crowns and bridges. Nickel, cobalt, chromium, and their alloys most often cause a reaction. It manifests not only under the metal itself: burning throughout the mucosa, a metallic taste, swelling of the gingival margin next to the crown, and darkening of the gum are possible. Sometimes skin symptoms are added—itching, a rash on the hands, and swelling of the lips. The diagnosis is made not by a dentist based on appearance, but by an allergist: skin tests or a blood test for sensitization. A thermoplastic prosthesis contains no metal at all—neither the base nor the retaining elements. For a person with a confirmed reaction to nickel or cobalt, this removes an entire layer of risks. But if metal crowns are already in the oral cavity, they remain a source of contact, and their fate is discussed separately. Replacing only the removable part does not always eliminate the symptom.
The fabrication of a thermoplastic prosthesis relies on diagnostics and precise measurements. Let us break down which devices are used at different stages and what they give the doctor and the technician.
The scanner replaces the familiar tray with impression material. A light beam passes over the prosthetic bed and teeth, and the program assembles a point cloud into a three-dimensional model. The doctor immediately sees on the screen where data is missing and rescans the needed area. The patient does not have to sit with setting material, and the technician does not have to struggle with bubbles and deformation of the impression during casting. The digital file goes to the laboratory without loss of geometry. Then the model is printed or milled, and the prosthesis is prepared from it. The accuracy of fit depends on the clinical picture: with mobile teeth, a pronounced torus, or scars on the mucosa, scanning may require several passes. The doctor decides whether a digital impression is sufficient or whether it needs to be combined with a conventional impression. The scanner is part of the clinic’s equipment, so the digital protocol is available at the appointment.
The main work happens outside the chair. Using the resulting model, the technician models the base, places artificial teeth, and sets the boundaries of the future prosthesis. The thermoplastic material is heated to a plastic state, pressed into a mold under pressure, and allowed to cool. Then flash is removed, the edges are ground, and the surface is polished until smooth so that it does not injure the mucosa. At this stage, a heating furnace, a press mold, and polishing equipment are important. Some operations are automated: a CAD/CAM machine mills the model or structural elements according to the digital file. Manual finishing still remains—the technician checks the fit on the model, removes high spots, and adjusts occlusal contacts. How long the laboratory stage takes depends on the clinical picture and the laboratory’s workload. The finished prosthesis is passed to the doctor for fitting and adjustment.
Adaptation to a removable prosthesis is gradual. The first sensations are almost always unusual, and this is normal. Below is what happens at the beginning and what helps you get into the rhythm.
In the first days, there is a sense of volume in the mouth. The tongue looks for its usual place, and the base of the prosthesis gets in the way. There may be more saliva than usual; this goes away on its own. Sometimes mild nausea appears—it is associated with irritation of the soft palate and weakens as you get used to it. Speech may sound unclear: the sounds “s,” “z,” and “sh” change because the tongue presses against a new surface. Read aloud for ten to fifteen minutes a day—this makes it easier to train articulation. Chewing also has to be relearned: start with soft food, in small pieces, evenly on both sides. Do not try to bite hard food right away. A flexible prosthesis springs slightly under load, and this sensation is unusual after rigid structures. How long adaptation lasts depends on the clinical picture: for some it is a week, for others a month. The doctor decides at the examination, not the calendar. If it rubs in one place and the pain does not subside, do not endure it—make an appointment.
Adjustment is needed if persistent pain appears. Do not put up with chafing for more than two or three days: a pressure sore can form under the denture, and it takes longer to treat than the adjustment itself. Come in if the appliance rocks, clicks when you speak, or slides to one side. Sometimes an edge presses on the gum or cheek. The dentist examines the mucosa, finds the area of overload, and removes excess material. Sometimes, on the contrary, material needs to be added in the area where the denture does not fit closely. Such an adjustment takes a few minutes and usually does not require remaking the appliance. After the adjustment, a follow-up visit may be needed — this is normal, tissues change, and the fit is refined over time. If the pain does not go away after two or three adjustments, the dentist reassesses the fit: the cause may be not the denture but the condition of the mucosa or the bite. The decision is made by the dentist based on the clinical picture. Do not grind the denture yourself — this removes material where it is not needed, and the appliance stops staying in place.
A thermoplastic denture is a removable appliance made of a flexible polymer material. The base follows the relief of the gum, and there are no metal elements in it. Therefore, it is considered for localized defects and for complete tooth loss, when the aesthetics of the visible area matter. But flexibility is not a universal advantage. On the chewing teeth the load is higher, and a soft base distributes it differently than a rigid one. Indications are determined not by the patient's wishes but by the clinical picture: the condition of the mucosa, the height of the alveolar ridge, and the number of supporting teeth. With significant bone atrophy or mobility of the remaining teeth, the decision may favor another type of appliance. Sometimes such a denture is made as a temporary stage before implantation. Sometimes as the main option if surgery is impossible due to health condition. Each case is considered individually; there is no universal answer that it 'suits everyone'.
Service life depends on the material, the thickness of the base, the intensity of the chewing load, and how carefully the patient handles it. Approximate figures are given at the time of delivery, but this is a prognosis, not a guaranteed term. A flexible polymer loses elasticity over time, changes color, and may thin at the edge. A reline is performed when the base stops fitting closely to the gum. If this is not done, food debris accumulates under the denture and the mucosa becomes inflamed. Care is simple: remove after meals, rinse, clean with a soft brush without abrasive pastes. Boiling water and alcohol solutions are contraindicated — they deform the material. At night the appliance is removed and stored in water or a special solution so that the base does not dry out. Regular check-ups with the dentist are needed even if nothing bothers you: small changes at the edge are noticed by a specialist earlier than by the patient.
The choice of appliance is not a matter of preference. The dentist assesses the condition of the oral cavity, the findings of X-rays, the bite, and the condition of the mucosa and periodontium. Sometimes a patient comes for a flexible denture, but after the examination is offered a clasp denture or implantation. Sometimes the opposite: a complex clinical picture makes a soft base a reasonable compromise. There are also cases when the decision favors a combination of methods. The patient should ask questions directly: why this option is proposed, what its limitations are, and what will happen to the appliance in a few years. A clear treatment plan is more important than the name of the material. If doubts remain, it is reasonable to get a second opinion — this is normal practice, not distrust. The final decision always belongs to the dentist and the patient together, after examination and discussion.
The most common complaints when wearing a thermoplastic denture are irritation of the gums and oral mucosa during the first weeks of adaptation, as well as denture stomatitis caused by poor hygiene: thermoplastic material is soft and flexible, but if the impression was taken incorrectly or the bite height is too high, it presses on specific areas, causing pain. If the irritation does not go away within a few days, the denture is adjusted by removing excess material in the problem area, which is done quickly and without remaking the appliance, and for stomatitis, professional cleaning of the denture and treatment of the oral cavity help, and sometimes the care routine is changed. Come in for an examination if the discomfort lasts longer than a week: the dentist will assess the fit and decide whether adjustment is needed.
Yes, a thermoplastic denture is designed for everyday wear, you can eat and talk with it, but in the first days speech may be slightly unclear, and chewing hard food is uncomfortable because the soft material does not traumatize the supporting teeth and gums the way rigid acrylic does, and adaptation is usually smoother. During the first one to two weeks, it is better to start with soft food, cut it into small pieces, and avoid loading the denture on one side. If speech remains unclear for a long time or the denture shifts when chewing, the fit needs adjustment, so make an appointment if you feel the appliance is in the way.
During pregnancy, diabetes mellitus, and periodontitis, a thermoplastic denture is possible, but the decision is made by the dentist after examination and assessment of the oral cavity: for pregnant patients, treatment is usually planned for the second trimester, when they feel more stable, and urgent interventions are performed as indicated at any stage. With diabetes, it is important that blood sugar is under control, since high glucose levels slow healing and increase the risk of inflammation under the denture. With periodontitis, inflammation is first resolved and hygiene is performed, otherwise the soft denture will maintain the disease. Come in for an initial examination, and the dentist will draw up a plan taking your condition into account.
In our clinic, the warranty on prosthetic restorations is up to 5 years, and the thermoplastic denture is covered under this warranty provided the rules of wearing and care are followed. The warranty does not apply if the denture is broken by dropping it, biting nuts, or using it for purposes other than intended, or if the patient did not come in for follow-up examinations and adjustments, so attend scheduled check-ups, clean the denture with special products, and do not try to bend or grind it yourself. The exact terms are set out in the contract, which also specifies the period and procedure for making a claim, and you can clarify the details at an appointment with the prosthodontist.
Yes, a thermoplastic denture can be made for a single tooth and for the anterior region if there are no suitable supports nearby for a fixed restoration or the patient does not want to have the adjacent teeth prepared. For a single tooth, a removable butterfly denture is more often used: it is held in place by elastic clasps that wrap around the adjacent teeth and are almost invisible. For the front teeth, this option is suitable as a temporary solution or when implantation is contraindicated, but the chewing load on it is limited, so the dentist assesses the bite, the condition of the supporting teeth and gums, and suggests alternatives. Make an appointment for a consultation to compare the options.
If the denture breaks, do not try to glue it back together yourself with superglue, because such a repair is toxic to the oral cavity and almost always ruins the structure: collect all the fragments, put them in a clean container, and bring them to the clinic, where the doctor will use them to assess whether a repair is possible or a remake is needed. Thermoplastic dentures can only be repaired to a limited extent: a crack can sometimes be soldered, but if the base is fractured or a clasp breaks off, a new denture is more often made. Until your visit, do not wear the damaged structure, so as not to scratch the gum or swallow a fragment, and it is worth booking an appointment as early as possible so the doctor can say what to do next.
The cost of a thermoplastic denture is made up of the number of missing teeth, the type of structure, the chosen material, and the scope of preparatory procedures, for example treating teeth or relieving inflammation before prosthetics. The price is quoted by the doctor at the examination after seeing the situation and drawing up a plan, because the same denture for one tooth and for the entire dental arch costs differently, and the need for adjustments and repeat fittings can also affect it. See the current amounts in the prices section on this page, and get an exact calculation at your appointment. The initial examination and treatment plan at our clinic are 0 ₸.
Getting used to a thermoplastic denture usually takes from a few days to two or three weeks, and during this period increased salivation, mild slurring of speech, and a feeling of a foreign body in the mouth are possible; moreover, the soft elastic material presses on the gum less than hard acrylic, so many patients note that adaptation is easier. To speed up the process, read aloud, wear the denture according to the prescribed schedule, and do not take it out for long periods without reason. If pain or chafing persists after two weeks, an adjustment by the prosthodontist is needed, and you can book it by phone at the clinic.
A thermoplastic denture is rinsed after every meal and cleaned twice a day with a soft brush without abrasive paste, and once a week it is treated with a special tablet for removable structures; boiling water and hot water are contraindicated, because at high temperature the thermoplastic deforms and the denture stops fitting into place. At night the structure is removed and stored in a closed container with water or a solution so that the material does not dry out. Every six months you should come for a professional cleaning and examination, where the doctor checks the fit and the condition of the supporting teeth. Such care extends the service life of the denture and reduces the risk of gum inflammation.
A thermoplastic denture is made from an elastic polymer without monomer, so it is softer than an acrylic one, contains no residual monomer, and less often causes allergies and irritation of the mucosa, whereas acrylic is rigid, costs less, and is easier to repair, but it presses on the gum more and can chafe if the fit is inaccurate. Thermoplastic is almost invisible in the mouth due to its translucency and fits tightly to the tissues, but it is more expensive and less amenable to relining when bone is lost. The choice depends on the number of missing teeth, the condition of the gum, and the budget, so at the examination the doctor will compare both options as they apply to your situation.

Chewing became comfortable from the very first day. They replaced the old bridge with crowns. I was surprised that everything was shown on the screen)
I made an appointment on the recommendation of a colleague from work. I had veneers placed on my four front teeth, and my bite was checked at the end. The impression was taken with a scanner, without a tray or impression material in the mouth, which I had never experienced anywhere before.
Came from another district — and that was exactly what I was afraid of. The crown was color-matched to the adjacent teeth. I took my time choosing, and now I realize it was worth it...
After previous treatment, I had no confidence. I had been treated elsewhere before. I got veneers done, and they patiently answered my questions. During the consultation, they wrote everything down on paper for me. I decided to bring my family here as well. They opened the instruments in front of me. The next day they called to check on how I was doing. They kept to the schedule exactly. They did not ask for more money than the estimate. The room was clean, with no odors.
After previous treatment I had no confidence. I got veneers done, and he explained what he was doing at every step. Nurlan explained everything. He opened the instruments in front of me. I'm happy with the result. I didn't have to wait in line)
Had veneers done on four front teeth quickly. Aruzhan explained the plan in detail.
The crown was matched in color to the neighboring teeth, and the fitting took about twenty minutes. The crown is indistinguishable from my own teeth. Rustam showed everything on the X-ray. They know their stuff here. The office is bright, the equipment is new, and that wins you over. They messaged the next day to ask how I was feeling, and that wins you over. My previous experience was worse, so I have something to compare it to (I asked twice). They set up the installment plan on the spot, without running around to banks, and that wins you over. They created the card right away, asked for my passport only once, the way it should be.
I put this off for about a year and a half. I had veneers done on my four front teeth, and the shade was matched in daylight. Parking is in the courtyard, I found a spot — that's how it should be.
I had to get it done before my vacation. I got veneers; the price was quoted upfront and didn't change in the end. Everything is fine now. I'm satisfied. They called the next day to check on me. They were right on time. The room was clean, no odors. The office is bright, with new equipment. Booking was easy.
Before this, I had only come in for promotional offers and never really got proper treatment. I had a zirconia crown placed, and the shade was matched under daylight. The only thing I didn't like was that the receptionist took a long time to find my file.
I made myself go even though I didn't feel like it, and we waited a bit longer for the appointment — but that's just me being honest. Rustam explains things calmly and to the point. The crown was color-matched to the neighboring teeth, and it was done on time — which was exactly what I was afraid of. They saw me right on the dot, no waiting, which never happened anywhere else before.
Had my old bridge replaced with crowns, and I haven't regretted it once. Chewing was comfortable from the very first day. I recommend this clinic (I asked twice to be sure)
Before this, I had only gone during a promotion and never really got proper treatment. No stress. The crown was matched in color to the neighboring teeth. Found a parking spot in the courtyard — a small thing, but nice. Now I only come here. They answered my questions even after the appointment, via messenger — a small thing, but nice. At the fitting they adjusted the shape until it matched, and I want to mention that specifically. The contract and receipt were provided without me having to ask. The receptionist called back when she said she would.
Staraya koronka potemnela po krayu i stala zametna. Dumala, chto budet dolshe. Koronku podbirali po cvetu k sosednim, cvet podbirali pri dnevnom svete (doma potom smeyalis)...
I initially just wanted to look around and compare prices. They replaced my old bridge with crowns, and the fitting took about twenty minutes. Sterility is visible, instruments were opened in front of me. Now I only come here. I was seen right on time, no waiting. The receptionist called back when she promised, which never happened anywhere before. The impression was taken with a scanner, without a tray and paste in the mouth, the way it should be. They answered my questions even after the appointment, via messenger, I'll note that separately. They scheduled me at a convenient time, no "come at nine and wait." The hallway doesn't smell like a hospital, but like something neutral, I'll note that separately.
I came on the advice of my colleague. I didn't expect this. They replaced the old bridge and gave me a step-by-step treatment plan.
My previous dentist moved away, so I had to find a new one, and the crown was color-matched to the adjacent teeth, and it was done on time. The color matched, no one notices anything, and that's the main thing. I was seen right on time, no waiting. They scheduled me at a convenient time, no "come at nine and wait," no complaints about that. At the fitting they adjusted the shape until it matched, no complaints about that.
Replaced the old bridge with crowns; the shade was matched in daylight. They answered my questions even after the appointment, via messenger — a small thing, but it's nice (I asked twice). Rustam showed me everything on the X-ray.
The old crown darkened along the edge and became noticeable. Found a clinic near home. Got a zirconia crown, they checked the bite at the end)
Zapsialsya cherez sayt perezvonili minut cherez desyat (doma potom smeyalis). Bez nervov. Koronku podbirali po cvetu k sosednim, cvet podbirali pri dnevnom svete.
I hadn't been to the dentist for about three years after the pandemic. Honestly, I'm still surprised it was painless. They matched the crown color to the neighboring teeth, and a temporary crown was placed right away. Chewing became comfortable from the very first day!
I had a zirconia crown placed. I would come back here for a second tooth too. I have never regretted it. They answered my questions even after the appointment, via messenger.
Kliniku vybirala dolgo, chitala otzyvy po vsemu gorodu. Delali viniry na chetyre perednih zuba, primerka zanyala minut dvadcat. Cvet sovpal, nikto nichego ne zamechaet, i eto glavnoe. Parkovka vo dvore, mesto nashlos, kak i dogovarivalis
Chewing became comfortable from the very first day, and I've already gotten used to the idea that it's all behind me. They placed a zirconia crown. I came on a colleague's recommendation!

Sanjar is a thorough doctor, attentive to the smallest details. I had veneers done on my four front teeth. In my opinion, the main thing is that he doesn't pressure you into a decision. And that's it. Chewing became comfortable from the very first day, which is exactly what I wanted!
I initially just wanted to look around and compare prices. They replaced the old bridge with crowns, and the temporary crown was placed right away. Sanzhar stays in touch even after the appointment.
I booked an appointment on the advice of a colleague from work. They replaced my old bridge with crowns, and the shade was matched in daylight. Nurlan is the kind of doctor you come back to. It seems like a small thing, but that's exactly what stuck with me. The downside was that the administrator took a long time to find my file, but it didn't affect my overall impression (I had to ask twice). The crown is indistinguishable from my own teeth, and I've already gotten used to the idea that it's all behind me. Thanks to the whole team!
I was surprised that everything was shown on the screen. No stress (we laughed about it at home afterwards). I have nothing to compare it to, but it felt right. They replaced the old bridge with crowns, and the color was matched in daylight. The crown is indistinguishable from my own teeth, and it feels like my own.
Before this, I had only come in for promotional offers and never really got proper treatment. I had veneers done on my four front teeth. Honestly, I expected worse. They arranged the installment plan right there on the spot, no running around to banks. Farrukh explained why I shouldn't put it off (I asked him twice to repeat it)...
Koronku podbirali po cvetu k sosednim, primerka zanyala minut dvadcat, a v koridore tesnovato, kogda vse zhdut — no eto ya tak, dlya chestnosti. Koronku ne otlichit ot svoih zubov, chego i hotela. V obschem, ne pozhalela...
They replaced the old bridge with crowns and checked my bite at the end. The receptionist called back when she said she would — I'll give them credit for that. Overall, no regrets. They quoted the prices upfront, and nothing was added at the end — a small thing, but nice. Honestly, I'm still surprised it was pain-free. The office is bright and the equipment is new — thanks for that too. They set up my file right away and only asked for my ID once. Sterility was out in the open — instruments were opened in front of me. The contract and receipt were provided without me having to ask. They arranged the installment plan on the spot, no running around to banks!
Strange, but I wasn't even tired after the appointment — I'm one of those people who ask again three times, and they were patient. They replaced the old bridge with crowns, finished on time...
At first I just wanted to have a look and compare prices, but chewing became comfortable from day one — I compare it to what I had before. Aruzhan laid out the plan in detail. I had veneers done on my four front teeth, and the shade was matched in daylight. I was nervous right up to the end. Thanks to the whole team. They arranged the installment plan on the spot, no running around to banks. They booked me at a convenient time, no "come at nine and wait" — a small thing, but nice. The office is bright, the equipment is new — I'll point that out separately. They answered my questions even after the appointment, via messenger. I think the thing is that here nobody rushes you.
At first I just wanted to look and get a price estimate. I was surprised that everything was shown on screen. I have a low pain threshold, and they took that into account. It didn't hurt at all. The crown was color-matched to the neighboring teeth, and the fitting took about twenty minutes.
