Dental pressure pots are used to cure acrylics used in dental appliances. Pressure curing allows for long-lasting stable color and eliminates porosity. There are a variety of dental pressure pots on the market some utilize heat while others use water or compressed air to get the intended results. Features can include an internal temperature gauge, a temperature controller, and an air lock and safety valve of some sort. Dental pressure pots are a relatively inexpensive way to cure dental appliances. Whichever method your laboratory prefers, be sure the vendor chosen stands behind their product.
