People who have a prosthesis often feel uncomfortable about the way they look. People are embarrassed to wear short-sleeved clothes or shorts, visit beaches and gyms. To disguise dentures, foam or silicone stockings are mostly used to act as a shaping surface.
A new development, the contour-cover plastic overlay, is a collapsible design that attaches to the denture and visually makes the denture look like a modern gadget or fashion accessory. All dentures are individual, so each contour cover is unique, as it is made to the measurements of the customer with regard to design wishes. You can apply any image or embossed pattern to the contour covers.
