Valplast® is the brand of flexible partial that your dentists have always known and trusted. We are pleased to introduce our new authentication program to help your doctors authenticate genuine Valplast® offered by your laboratory.
Flexible partials aren’t exactly new - Valplast first invented them in 1953. But with so many new denture materials trying to make a name for themselves, how will you demonstrate to doctors that your lab uses only genuine Valplast materials?
We recently added serial numbers to our guarantee certificates to provide an extra level of traceability on Valplast® products, giving your doctors assurance that your lab is using only Valplast®. Now, patients can also register their Valplast® partials online to activate their lifetime-limited warranty.
With our new authentication program you will receive a serialized Certificate of Guarantee with every Valplast® resin cartridge that you purchase from one of our authorized dealers. When Valplast® resin cartridges are produced they are packaged with an equal number of guarantee certificates for delivery to the dental laboratory. Your laboratory will then process the Valplast® appliance and include the Valplast® Certificate of Guarantee with every case for delivery. The certificate has a special section on it for you to record the Valplast material batch number and your Certified Valplast Lab identification number.
When your clients receive the case instruct them to look for the Valplast® Certificate of Guarantee. The certificate contains important patient care information and also information on how to insert, adjust and polish a Valplast® appliance. Most importantly, the certificate contains a unique serial number that can be used to identify the appliance as a genuine Valplast® restoration. Patients can then use this serial number to register their appliance on our website and activate their lifetime limited warranty on the product.
Two dental technicians, Arpad and Tibor Nagy first invented the flexible partial denture in the early 1950’s in their laboratory, Master-Touch Dental Lab. The product was named Valplast® and a new company, Valplast International Corporation was created to promote the product to dentists and dental technicians around the world. In the nearly six decades since it was first invented Valplast® has been used in millions of successful clinical cases worldwide.
Not all brands of flexible denture are the same and it is important to know the differences that can be exhibited amongst them. Some of these differences include:
• Flexural modulus at body temperature
• Ability to resist breakage and deformation in high deflection (clasp) and low deflection (masticatory load) situations
• Color, translucency and aesthetic properties of the material
• Water absorption and ability to resist staining
• Clinical experience and history
• Options available for repairs & relines
• Biocompatibility & cytotoxicity
Valplast® resin is sold to dental laboratories in pre-dosed, pre-packaged cartridges that have all undergone strict quality control in production thanks to our expertly managed, ISO 13485 certified quality management system. Valplast® is FDA registered, CE certified, and certified by the health ministries of many foreign governments including Japan, Russia and Korea.
All of these factors combine with our six decades of experience in the field of flexible partial dentures to provide you with a premium product you know you can trust.
Valplast® is the name that you and your doctors have always known and trusted. Accept no substitutes. Give the Valplast® Certificate of Guarantee with every Valplast® appliance that your laboratory fabricates.
