Removable denture Akri free is a new type of prosthetics in dentistry, which is used for partial and complete absence of teeth. The peculiarity of these prostheses is that they are made from a special type of acrylic plastic, which has two important characteristics. Firstly, this material does not contain a monomer, and secondly, it gives the prostheses a slight flexibility (much more comfortable when compared with too soft nylon prostheses).
Acry-free® prosthetics was developed (Israel). Patient reviews on Acri free dentures are as follows - patients note the lower weight and volume of the dentures, their hypoallergenicity, inconspicuousness in the oral cavity, as well as moderate flexibility that is comfortable to wear. But they also have disadvantages, and below we will compare them in detail with other types of removable dentures.

Indications for prosthetics with Acri-free prostheses –
- partial absence of teeth,
- complete absence of teeth,
- if you are allergic to dentures made of conventional acrylic plastic,
- with allergies to metals (since such patients cannot be fitted with dentures that have metal structural elements).
Characteristic
The new generation elastic prosthesis has unique characteristics. The design differs in many ways from acrylic and other analogues:
- It contains no allergenic monomer;
- The base is flexible and comfortable;
- The appearance of the prosthesis is aesthetic - it repeats the colors and shape of real gums and teeth;
- The product is comfortable to wear - it does not rub or pinch.
- The composition of Akri Free includes several materials.
Let's look at them in more detail:
- Transparent base made of special resins;
- Crowns made from ceramics or plastic;
- The mechanism for fastening is clasps. In some cases, the prosthesis is attached by suction to the gum without the use of special glue.
- All materials used are considered hypoallergenic. Due to this, all people can use the design. Moreover, since acrylic resins are used in the production of the prosthesis, it is as durable as possible, and at the same time aesthetically pleasing.
Acry-Free material is obtained by pressing special acrylic granules under the influence of temperature.
This technology makes it possible to create a product with a pleasant pinkish tint, matching the color of the gums. Since the orthopedic design is performed strictly individually, it is possible to repeat as accurately as possible all the lines and curves of the oral cavity. That is, it is quite easy to restore the dentition in comparison with plastic dentures. At the same time, a product made from acrylic resins is much more aesthetically pleasing.
Installation procedure
During the initial examination by a specialist, the doctor examines the oral cavity and prepares it for orthopedic intervention. A mandatory item is preliminary sanitation of the mouth (treatment of gums and, if present, teeth). After this, the orthopedist selects the optimal color of the artificial gums and the dental crowns themselves, and then makes an impression.
The construction is made in a dental laboratory (based on an impression made). During the next visit, the specialist fixes the structure and always gives the patient the necessary recommendations regarding the care of the prosthesis and oral hygiene. Fixation of the prosthesis is absolutely painless.
Kinds
There are prostheses without a palate and complete Acri Free designs. Partial products are fixed using clasps.
Complete structures are attached directly to the gums; there is no need to use special glue. Dentures are made for both the upper jaw and the lower jaw. The full version is usually used for the upper jaw.
Partial construction is used in places where several adjacent teeth are missing. Their use allows you to achieve a good aesthetic result.
Reviews
Many people have already appreciated the benefits of installing such advanced structures as Acre-Free - they left positive reviews in clinics in various cities, as well as on their websites, if any.
In the comments, you can leave your feedback or wishes for those people who still doubt the need for such prosthetics.

Advantages
Among the variety of prosthetic methods in modern dentistry, removable soft dentures remain one of the most used. Due to the presence of a large number of contraindications to fixed prostheses, patients are increasingly choosing other methods, and specialists are developing newer and more improved methods of prosthetics, one of which is Akri Free.
Acri Free material is durable, but not as hard as plastic, and it also has a natural appearance. And most importantly, it is as flexible as nylon.
Flexible structures can be recommended for people with an allergic reaction to metal, with minor damage to their teeth, as well as for dental prosthetics in children.
There are several types of prosthetics:
- removable denture, which is used in patients with complete absence of teeth;
- if the patient is missing only a few teeth of one row, a partially removable denture is used;
- If it is necessary to make a prosthesis for one or two teeth, then a microprosthesis is used.
The finished product is attached to clasps made of flexible nylon.
Making the base from this material has a more aesthetic appearance than metal structures. Due to the way dentures are attached to the outer teeth, they become almost invisible to others.
The use of modern dentures made of acrylic resins minimizes wearing discomfort and also has the following advantages:
- The prosthesis is highly durable and can withstand high pressure and loads;
- Due to the soft elastic frame, it does not rub the gums. There is no irritation, and the material from which the products are made does not harm the body and is not toxic;
- The presented dentures do not cause allergic reactions, and their surface does not allow microbes to appear on them;
- There is no need to grind your teeth before installing the structure, and dentists recommend installing it even if there are no teeth at all;
- The dentures are installed firmly and reliably. With proper use and care of them, experts allow athletes or people working in traumatic areas to wear them;
- They have a pleasant aesthetic appearance, and the absence of metal particles makes them look natural;
- The product can be removed only for cleaning, and not at night, which is very convenient when using it;
- You get used to it very quickly.
All this is great, but there is one caveat - the main load when chewing in a person with a denture falls on those teeth that are involved in this process. The patient may experience discomfort and subsequently there is a risk of atrophy of the bone tissue, which is located directly under the installed prosthesis.
Unfortunately, such a defect can occur with any type of prosthesis, so if you experience any unpleasant sensations, you should immediately contact your dentist.
Manufacturing
To avoid getting a fake, you should know how Acri Free is made. To make dentures, an impression is taken, as in other types of prosthetics. The design takes about two weeks to complete.
The cost of the product varies depending on its type, but in any case, quality construction cannot be cheap. If it is a full prosthesis, then its price will be much higher than a microprosthesis. The full cost, as well as the size of the prosthesis, is determined by a specialist during a detailed examination.
Nylon dentures are an excellent alternative for people with allergic reactions to metal structures or if several teeth are missing. They, unlike other prostheses, are soft and elastic, which is an advantage if they are installed and cared for correctly, as well as with regular visits to the doctor.
Using Akri Free helps you not to change your usual lifestyle. Thanks to the lightness of the materials contained in the prosthesis, Acri Free is easy to install in the oral cavity. At the same time, they are fixed securely.
Installation is carried out in several stages:
- Pulpation of the oral cavity is performed.
- An impression is taken.
- The dentist makes a custom tray using hard material.
- An individual spoon is being fitted.
- A plaster cast is made.
- A template with rollers is produced.
- The dentist determines where the central part of the jaw lies, selects the desired shapes of teeth, and their color scheme.
- Plastering is carried out and teeth are installed in the model.
- Fitting is carried out.
- The product is duplicated, but with silicone materials.
- A duplicate model is made from plaster.
- The teeth are installed in a duplicate of the product.
- The teeth are carefully adjusted.
- Pressing is carried out.
- The prosthesis is removed, processed and polished.
- After this, it is placed in the oral cavity and fixed.
- The patient receives recommendations on how to use the structure.
How much the work of a master technician costs depends on the type of prosthesis being produced. The cost varies depending on whether you need a full or partial denture.

Adaptation
Prostheses are easy to use and aesthetically pleasing. As practice shows, adaptation to them does not take much time. It takes less than 14 days for the patient to get used to the product. Moreover, after just 2 days, speech defects disappear, and chewing function returns to normal.
Since the prosthesis is securely fixed in the oral cavity, it will not rub or injure the mucous membrane. Specialists select the color of the structure so that it matches the gums as closely as possible, so the product becomes invisible. Only a doctor can determine whether a prosthesis has been installed.
Important! If the structure does not fit tightly to the oral cavity and is loose, you should consult a dentist. It will eliminate the balance and prevent the prosthesis from remaining mobile. Otherwise, the product can quickly rub the mucous membrane, which is extremely unpleasant.
It is worth noting that sucking regular lollipops will help you get used to the design faster. The patient should also speak and read more, then adaptation will be faster.
If pain occurs during the first 24 hours while wearing a prosthesis, this is considered normal. In this case, you should just take it off at night and rest. But the next morning, it is recommended to put the device back on and go for a consultation with a doctor. Only he can correct it if necessary.

Indeed, looking at the photographs, you see downright perfect teeth. Usually, dentures are worn by older people, so when you see their perfect smile, it immediately becomes clear that the teeth are not their own, but there are few such people in our country, not all old people can afford high-quality, expensive dentures, they mostly have to go with cheap ones fakes.

My father was missing teeth throughout his entire upper jaw and had a choice between implants and dentures. Plus, he is allergic to metal. After consulting with a doctor, we made our choice in favor of Akri Free prostheses and did not regret it. The structure was made for the entire upper jaw. Father has been with them for more than six months now. It took some getting used to, but now everything is fine. During all this time, the dentures did not change shade.

We purchased this prosthesis for my grandmother on the advice of a prosthetist, since the previous one caused her very severe discomfort, rubbed and interfered with eating, and literally within six months of use it began to lose color. I would like to say right away that the prosthesis looks very natural. Grandma got used to it within two weeks, it stays firmly in the mouth and is easy to clean, she has been wearing it for about a year and is very pleased.

My grandmother was given such a unique gift for her anniversary - an acry-free denture, otherwise she simply would not agree to what she thought was such an expensive purchase. The most interesting thing is that when the prosthesis was made and grandma tried on the new thing, she said that now she would never part with the prosthesis and why she had refused before, because it was both comfortable and beautiful. So the prosthesis suited us very well.

I am so glad that I installed this particular prosthesis on 2 teeth. It’s incredibly comfortable, I don’t use any additional creams, I quickly installed it in the morning and went. It doesn’t rub, especially when eating, the first day I was worried about how I would eat lunch at work. But no problems arose, I even forget about it. The main thing is to rinse your mouth after eating so that crumbs do not get under the denture.

I wore an old nylon prosthesis and felt pain all the time when eating. I already hesitated, went to my doctor, I said, give me something normal, it’s impossible to live. He advised acrifri, they did it quickly. This is heaven and earth! I even ate a burger on the way to work today.

No matter how good this acry is, it is still unable to replace real teeth. I had to walk with him for a long time until it was time to get implants. Yes, the denture is light, yes, chewing does not hurt, etc. But you still constantly feel like you have a prosthesis in your mouth. Although I used to think that this was the norm. Everything is learned in comparison: when I got implants, I began to live like a normal person. My advice to you is if possible, don’t bother with removable dentures, free or not, it doesn’t matter. Place implants right away, you won’t waste time.
Care
Caring for your prosthesis is easy. They must be rinsed after each meal, and once every 7 days the product must be immersed in a special solution for deep cleaning. It is not necessary to remove the denture every night.
How to clean the product with a brush? It should be soft, and the use of abrasives is contraindicated. The cleaning procedure can be carried out both in the morning and in the evening, as well as after meals.
There are special brushes for dentures, the shape of which makes it possible to clean more effectively. They have bristles on both sides of the head, and on one side of the head the bristles are zigzag. It perfectly cleans the outer surface of the product.
On the other side the bristles are slightly rounded. And its scope of application is cleaning the concave side of the base.
With proper care, removable dentures last a very long time (about 7 years) and do not cause inconvenience to the patient. Do not forget that to correct the product you will have to visit the dentist 2 times a year. How to store the structure? It is enough to put it in a clean and dry place.
A few words about service life
The service life depends on several factors - the strength and maintainability of the material, the ability to absorb or not absorb liquids, pigments, and foreign odors. It is also important how well a person takes care of orthopedic structures. In this regard, a more reliable option is Acrifri dentures with a service life of about 5 years. They are not very elastic, durable, subject to repair and relining, polish well, and are quite easy to clean and disinfect. Therefore they last longer than nylon ones. The latter, even with adequate care, will stretch very much in 2-3 years, and it will no longer be possible to use them normally. Nylon ones need to be cleaned longer and more thoroughly, as well as soaked in a disinfectant solution.
