FAQs: tcs® Suction Cup Dentures
Q: How long will the procedure take to receive a tcs® Suction Cup?
A: That depends on if you have an existing denture that is simply getting relined into a tcs® Suction Cup. In that case, it would only take two visits, one for the impression and one for delivery. If you are having a new denture fabricated using the tcs® Suction Cup, it would require the standard 4 to 6 visits.
Q: Will the procedure be painful?
A: No, it is the same procedure used for conventional denture relines.
Q: How long will my tcs® Suction Cup liner last?
