Device Story
Vertex cold-curing denture base materials (Self Curing, Castavaria, Castapress) are self-polymerizing acrylic resins composed of polymethyl methacrylate powder and methyl methacrylate liquid. Used by dental professionals in clinical or laboratory settings to fabricate, repair, rebase, or reline full and partial dentures. Vertex Self Curing polymerizes in 10 minutes using a pressure vessel; Castavaria is a pourable, multifunctional material with minimized shrinkage and extended working time; Castapress is a pouring/casting material featuring a unique accelerator system for color stability. The materials are shaded to simulate gum tissue using cadmium-free pigments. The final cured acrylic provides the structural base for dental prostheses, restoring function and aesthetics for patients.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance data provided includes flexural strength, flexural modulus, water absorption, water solubility, and residual monomer content. Results demonstrate compliance with ISO 1567, ISO 20795, ISO 179-1, ISO 7405, and ASTM F 895-84 standards.
Technological Characteristics
Polymethyl methacrylate powder and methyl methacrylate liquid. Cadmium-free pigments. Self-polymerizing (cold-curing) acrylic resin. Standards: ISO 1567, ISO 20795, ISO 179-1, ISO 7405, ASTM F 895-84. No software or electronic components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the manufacture, repair, rebasing, and relining of full and partial dentures in patients requiring dental prosthetics.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A denture relining, repairing, or rebasing resin is a device composed of materials such as methylmethacrylate, intended to reline a denture surface that contacts tissue, to repair a fractured denture, or to form a new denture base. This device is not available for over-the-counter (OTC) use.

This acrylic can be polymerized in 10 minutes using a pressure vessel.<br>VertexTM Castavaria is a multifunctional self polymerizing denture base material intended as a pouring and as a repair acrylic. The advantages |
{1}------------------------------------------------
of this acrylic are: minimized shrinkage, color stability, stable polymerization cycle and the acrylic is pourable for a long period of time. In addition Vertex™ Castavaria can be worked and modeled over a relatively long period of time.
Vertex™ Castapress is a self polymerizing pouring/casting type denture base material also suitable for repair, relining, rebasing and extensions of partial dentures. The colour stability of the material is excellent because of the use of an unique accelerator system
The Vertex Cold-Curing denture base materials are substantially equivalent to predicate denture base devices presently on the USA market and safety and effectiveness are well documented in dental literature.
## Intended Use:
Vertex cold-curing denture base materials are indicated for:
- 1. Manufacture of full and partial dentures
- 2. Repair of full and partial dentures
- Rebasing of full and partial dentures 3.
- Relining of full and partial dentures ধ :
Summary of Technological Characteristics All of the components found in Vertex™ cold-curing denture base materials have been used in legally marketed devices and were found safe for dental use.
