Flexible Flippers: The Affordable, Temporary Tooth Replacement Solution | Smile Boutique NY

What Are Flexible Flippers?

Flexible flippers are removable partial dentures designed to replace one or more missing teeth temporarily. Made from lightweight, durable materials like acrylic or Valplast®, they’re comfortable, affordable, and blend seamlessly with your natural teeth. Whether you’re waiting for implants or saving for a permanent solution, flippers offer an instant fix for gaps in your smile.

Why Choose Flexible Flippers?

1. Instant Smile Improvement
   Fill gaps immediately, restoring confidence while eating, speaking, or smiling.

2. Budget-Friendly
   At $300\text{–}$800, they’re a fraction of the cost of dental implants ($3,000\text{–}$6,000 per tooth).

3. Non-Invasive
   No surgery required—just a simple impression and fitting process.

4. Adjustable
   Can be modified if additional teeth need replacement later.

     Caring for Your Flexible Flipper

     1. Clean Daily
        Rinse after meals and brush gently with a soft toothbrush and non-abrasive cleaner.

     2. Soak Overnight
        Store in a denture solution to maintain moisture and hygiene.

     3. Avoid Hard Foods
        Sticky or crunchy foods can damage the flipper’s structure.

     4. Regular Check-Ups
        Visit Smile Boutique NY every 6 months for adjustments and oral health assessments.
