ABSTRACT:
Disclosed are devices and methods for forming a denture in a tray either in-situ in the mouth of a dental patient or against a model of the gums. A tray which is adapted to hold false teeth and which formable is fitted or conformed to the gums of the patient, or to an impression of the gums of the patient, while employing a spacer to separate said formable tray and gums or impression of the gums, said spacer having a thickness representing approximately the thickness of the denture-forming plastic material desired in the denture. The resulting conformed tray with the spacer separated provides a former into which liquid curable denture-forming material is then placed. The resulting assembly can then be inserted into the mouth where pressure is applied and the denture-forming material cures to form the denture which is thereafter separated from the former.
