Pink PMMA Discs 10-30mm | Premium Denture Bases & Hybrid Prosthetics

Milling & Processing Workflow:

Step 1: CAD Design & Milling (20-40 minutes)

• Design denture base or prosthetic framework in CAD software (3Shape, Exocad, DWOS)
• No enlargement needed - PMMA does not shrink during processing
• Recommended bur: 1.0-2.5mm diameter carbide burs
• Milling speed: 30,000-60,000 RPM
• Feed rate: High (PMMA is soft and easy to mill)
• Use dry or wet milling (wet milling reduces dust)
• Achieve <0.05mm margin accuracy with proper parameters

Step 2: Finishing & Polishing (15-20 minutes)

• Remove milling tabs and smooth edges with finishing burs
• Polish with rubber polishers or polishing paste
• Use progressive grits: coarse → medium → fine → extra fine
• Final polish with felt wheel and polishing compound for a natural gum-like finish
• Clean thoroughly with alcohol or an ultrasonic cleaner
• Note: Proper polishing creates a natural, lifelike gingival appearance

Step 3: Combination with Tooth-Colored PMMA (if applicable)

• If creating hybrid prosthetics, combine a Pink PMMA base with tooth-colored PMMA crowns
• Use an appropriate bonding agent or cement for PMMA-to-PMMA bonding
• Ensure proper fit and alignment before bonding
• Polish bonding areas for seamless transition

Step 4: Delivery & Patient Care Instructions

• Provide patient with cleaning instructions
• Recommend cleaning with mild soap and water or denture cleaner
• Advise against hot water (can cause warping)
• Store in water or denture solution when not in use
• Regular cleaning maintains color and hygiene

💡 Pro Tip: Pink PMMA can last 6-12 months for temporary dentures and prosthetics. The gingival pink color remains stable over time without fading. For hybrid prosthetics, combine with Monolayer or Multilayer PMMA for tooth-colored components.

Why Choose Pink PMMA?

The Pink PMMA is specifically designed for denture bases and prosthetics requiring natural gingival color. Key advantages include:

• Natural Gingival Color: Realistic pink color mimics natural gum tissue for lifelike denture bases
• Superior Strength: ≥120 MPa flexural strength - same as tooth-colored PMMA for reliable durability
• Excellent Color Stability: Maintains consistent pink color over time without fading or discoloration
• Biocompatible: Low residual monomer (<1%) reduces risk of allergic reactions and tissue irritation
• Versatile Applications: Ideal for complete dentures, partial dentures, and hybrid prosthetics
• Easy to Combine: Works seamlessly with tooth-colored PMMA for hybrid restorations
• Cost-Effective: Affordable solution at $8.90-$14.90 per disc

Pink PMMA vs Tooth-Colored PMMA

Recommendation: Choose Pink PMMA for denture bases and gingival-colored components. Choose Monolayer or Multilayer PMMA for tooth-colored components. Combine both for hybrid prosthetics with natural appearance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

💎 Product Features & Gingival Color Advantages

Q: What makes Pink PMMA different from tooth-colored PMMA?
A: Pink PMMA features natural gingival pink color to mimic gum tissue, while tooth-colored PMMA (Monolayer/Multilayer) comes in Vita shades to mimic teeth. Both have the same ≥120 MPa strength. Choose Pink for denture bases and gingival areas, choose tooth-colored for crowns and bridges. They can be combined for hybrid prosthetics.

Q: Why is gingival pink color important for dentures?
A: Natural gingival pink color creates lifelike denture bases that blend seamlessly with the patient's natural gum tissue. This enhances esthetics and patient acceptance, especially for visible areas. The realistic color makes dentures look more natural and less artificial.

Q: Does the pink color fade over time?
A: No! Our Pink PMMA features excellent color stability. The gingival pink color is integrated throughout the material and maintains its consistent appearance over 6-12 months of use without fading or discoloration, even with regular cleaning.

Q: Is the strength the same as tooth-colored PMMA?
A: Yes! Pink PMMA has the same ≥120 MPa flexural strength as Monolayer PMMA - significantly higher than industry average (90-110 MPa). You get natural gingival color without sacrificing strength or durability.

🔧 Milling & Processing

Q: Which CAD/CAM systems are compatible with Pink PMMA?
A: Pink PMMA Discs are compatible with all major CAD/CAM systems including 3Shape, Exocad, DWOS, Roland, VHF, and more. Available in 98mm Open System and 95mm Zirkonzahn formats.

Q: What milling parameters should I use?
A: Recommended parameters:
• Bur size: 1.0-2.5mm diameter carbide burs
• Milling speed: 30,000-60,000 RPM
• Feed rate: High (PMMA is soft and easy to mill)
• Milling type: Dry or wet (wet reduces dust)
• No enlargement needed - PMMA does not shrink

Q: How do I achieve a natural gum-like finish?
A: Use progressive polishing:
1. Remove milling marks with finishing burs
2. Polish with rubber polishers (coarse → medium → fine → extra fine)
3. Final polish with felt wheel and polishing compound
4. Clean with alcohol for natural, lifelike gingival finish
Proper polishing creates a smooth, natural-looking gum appearance.

Q: Can I combine Pink PMMA with tooth-colored PMMA?
A: Yes! Pink PMMA works seamlessly with Monolayer or Multilayer PMMA for hybrid prosthetics. Use appropriate bonding agent or cement for PMMA-to-PMMA bonding. This allows you to create complete restorations with pink gingival base and tooth-colored crowns.

🏥 Clinical Applications

Q: Is Pink PMMA suitable for complete dentures?
A: Yes! Pink PMMA is ideal for complete denture bases. The natural gingival color creates lifelike appearance, and the ≥120 MPa strength provides excellent durability for daily chewing forces. Can last 6-12 months as temporary dentures.

Q: Can Pink PMMA be used for hybrid prosthetics?
A: Yes! Pink PMMA is excellent for hybrid prosthetics (implant-supported full-arch restorations). Use Pink PMMA for the gingival-colored base and combine with tooth-colored PMMA crowns for a complete, natural-looking restoration.

Q: Is Pink PMMA suitable for partial dentures?
A: Yes! Pink PMMA can be used for partial denture frameworks where gingival-colored components are needed to blend with natural gum tissue. The color stability ensures long-term esthetic results.

Q: Can Pink PMMA be used for temporary crowns?
A: No. Pink PMMA is gingival-colored (pink), not tooth-colored. For temporary crowns and bridges, use Monolayer PMMA (17 Vita shades) or Multilayer PMMA (3-layer gradient) instead.

🧼 Cleaning & Maintenance

Q: How should patients clean Pink PMMA dentures?
A: Instruct patients to:
• Clean daily with mild soap and lukewarm water or denture cleaner
• Use soft denture brush - avoid abrasive cleaners
• Rinse thoroughly after cleaning
• Avoid hot water (can cause warping)
• Store in water or denture solution when not in use
• Avoid bleach-based cleaners (can affect color)

Q: How do I maintain the pink color over time?
A: To maintain gingival pink color:
• Clean regularly with mild denture cleaner
• Avoid abrasive cleaners or toothpaste
• Avoid bleach-based products
• Store in water or denture solution
• Avoid exposure to high heat
With proper care, the pink color remains stable indefinitely.

📦 Ordering & Packaging

Q: What thickness options are available?
A: Pink PMMA is available in 9 thickness options:
