Reinforcing and Repairing Dentures
Stick fibres are the best materials to reinforce and repair all types of dentures.

With the unique patented IPN feature found only in Stick Tech's fibres it is possible to get a reliable bond between fibres and denture base acrylic. Consequently the load bearing capacity of the reinforcement can be really utilized. No debonding between the reinforcement and denture base acrylic occurs, unlike with traditional reinforcement methods (metal). It has been shown that dentures reinforced with Stick Tech's fibres can be used for many years without any damage to the denture.

The latest studies show that denture base acrylics reinforced with Stick fibres are stronger than with other reinforcement fibres, and more than 100 times stronger than plain denture base acrylic.** Therefore Stick and everStick fibres are suitable for every indication where there is a need to replace missing teeth with removable dentures.

New Denture or Repair
The IPN feature found in Stick, StickNET and everStick fibres make them the perfect choice with heat-polymerized and autopolymerized denture base polymers, processed using injection moulded or conventional methods. Both new dentures or repairs of old broken dentures can be reinforced with Stick Tech fibres. All new dentures without proper reinforcement, tend to break a few years after manufacturing. When incorporating Stick reinforcement within a new denture the additional cost is only similar to the cost of one repair of a broken new denture.

When an unreinforced broken denture is repaired it is easy to reinforce it with Stick, StickNET or everStick C&B and no additional visit at the repair stage or additional repair later is needed. Reinforcing, relining and adding new teeth to the denture can be performed at the same time.

A denture with Stick fibre reinforcement is as aesthetic as a denture without fibres because of the transparent colour of the fibres.

Partial to Full Dentures
Stick fibre reinforcements are suitable for both partial and full dentures. Just choose the best type of Stick fibre for the appropriate area and any type of denture base acrylic can be reinforced. When thin areas or clasp tags in the dentures are reinforced, thin StickNET is recommended to bring toughness to the structure. When more space is available, unidirectional Stick fibres are the best solution for reinforcing the denture.

Mandibulary to Maxillary Dentures
There is no difference if Stick fibres are used in mandibulary or maxillary dentures. Stick Tech's fibres can be used to make both types of dentures resist fractures in midline, margin or in other areas of the denture.
