[QUOTE="2thm8kr, post: 307229, member: 1367"] In my experience industrial processed PMMA is much stronger than traditional. I have milled temp dentures, full arch SR implant temps, full arch on a few preps opposing each other and in different combinations. If you stay away from cantilevers, respect the law of beams, and bulk up thin areas around implant channels it's quite durable. Three to six months is typical around here while implants finish cooking. Had some have to much last much longer (1-2yrs)due to varied patient circumstances. Have seen some patients wear down the oclussion, but certainly no more than processed. Replacing or amending for any reason is simple since it's a digital design. For us it's become a pretty versatile material to work out solutions for long term treatment plans. I'm not using any fancy name branded milled pmma. It's a temp, it may need to be replaced during the treatment. [/QUOTE]
