Incisive Design, Faster Incisors
Here’s a statistic to sink your teeth into: Some 5 million sets of partial dentures are made each year in the U.S. Considering the number of Baby Boomers that are soon to join the ranks of denture wearers, the 5 million figure is probably only a bite-sized portion of what’s to come.
