I have been fitted with a new Valplast denture, and have had a reaction to the plastic on my tongue. It has a burning sensation, and my tongue has little eruptions on it that look like red blisters. It is impossible to keep the denture in my mouth for longer than a few hours.
Has anyone else experienced this?
I shall be very interested to hear your experiences with this substance.
I have recently inserted a Partial upper Valplast denture and the patient is having similar problems. The manufacturer's is saying this won't happen. I will be conducting some test using sample strips of Valpast and placing them in the patients mouth to see if she has a similar reaction. The manufacturers suggested it might be the artifical teeth I will also have the patient place a tooth in her mouth to see if she has a reaction to the artifical tooth.
It appears to be the acrylic teeth that have caused the reaction with the patient. All 3 brands of acrylic teeth caused similar reactions when placed in the mouth and the valplast strips had no effect
I have been fitted with not one but two Valplast partials. They were very comfortable but within a few weeks the part acroos the palate became rough and furry. It was as if the surface was pitted rather than any build up of scale which could be removed. The first one was replaced but exactly the same thing happened with the second. The only explanation given was that my saliva must be doing it...The furry sensation in themouth was awful so I am having to go back to a different denture which is very disappointing. Has anyone else heard of or experienced such a thing?
Valplast tends to do this but not usually this quick. Did they give you the cleaning powder? This furriness can be polished away by the dentist. You should also ask that it is a valplast denture and not a clone.
the same thing is happening to me , my tongue , roof of mouth and gum has a burning sensation. makes it very uncomfortable to have any food or warm/hot drink ( coffee) touch these areas. I too can't wear the (upper) for more than an hour or two.
The thing that is confusing to me is the demo my dentist show me feels more flexible and softer than the one made for me. the one I have feels like hard rough plastic, I only had for 10 days and have noticed in some areas the pink is chipping off ( not rubbing off) chipping, and looks like clear see thru plastic. if this normal? or should I suspect a cheaper made clone of valplast?
In any case is there anything I can do if I just can't wear it comfortably. paid almost a 1000 bucks ( just for the upper) and can't wear it more than a few hours , and have burning hours after I remove it . seems kind of unfair to pay that much for something that can't be used for the purpose it was intended. my dentist tells there is a breaking in period and I am just not use to it yet . is this true or is the burning and chipping a sign something is wrong, and I should demand something be done now instead of waiting.

I to have had an allergic reaction to the Valplast. The blisters in my mouth hurt so bad that I can not even ware my teeth. I paid mega bucks to have them and now I cant wear them. My dentist tells me to try to continue to ware them but the blisters in my mouth wont allow me to even put my teeth in my mouth.
I started wearing a partial lower Valplast denture 28/10/11 (costing £590). Within five minutes of wearing it I experienced a hot, burning sensation on my gums, mouth and throat. Within five minutes of removing it the symptoms stop. However, I persevered wearing the denture every day hoping that the symptoms would subside but so far they haven't. Yesterday my mouth and throat were so sore that I lost my voice. The symptoms subsided after I removed the denture.
