[QUOTE="nvarras, post: 238598, member: 342"] I use predominantly acetal. I've tried visiclear and duraflex clasps on chrome. The acetal is more resilient and looks better in my opinion. You do have to get the proper placement of the clasp. You're using height of contour rather than undercut gauges and remember to block out around the shoulder. Also the junction where the acrylic meets the acetal is important. I tend to slightly over build acrylic in this area and tuck entry point of the clasp underneath (especially important when I put these on all acrylic partials. The ones I've seen come back have been great. The stains clean right up. I've had one case where retention was a problem and that was because there was no undercut on the tooth. I haven't had one break yet but I won't use them when I think breakage will be a problem. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
