What is the final flasking pressure for fabrication of heat cure complete denture?


The final flasking pressure for the fabrication of heat-cured complete dentures typically ranges from 1500 to 2500 psi (pounds per square inch). This pressure is applied during the processing phase to ensure proper adaptation of the denture base to the master cast and to minimize the inclusion of air bubbles in the acrylic resin. It's important to follow the specific guidelines provided by the manufacturer of the acrylic resin being used, as these can vary based on the materials and techniques employed. Additionally, the pressure and technique can also depend on the design of the flask and the specific requirements of the case being fabricated.
