The Ultaire® AKP RPD will have a long lifetime1 (over ten years with
normal insertion and removal). It is designed to be supportive yet
lightweight, delivering a comfortable, natural-looking partial which
may improve overall patient compliance. Due to the fully
biocompatible nature of this material, Ultaire® AKP is non-allergenic
— which is not the case with conventional flexible, acrylic resin based
or metal partials. Ultaire® AKP is monomer, BPA and nickel-free, as
well as non-irritant, non-pyrogenic, non-mutagenic, and non-cytotoxic
