During the boiling and self-fitting process, the teeth can become slightly textured, rough, or chalky. This will go away in a short period of time as natural abrasion occurs while eating, which will polish the teeth. Instead of waiting for them to polish naturally, you can expedite this process by utilizing the super-fine polishing block that is included in your denture kit to gently rub the teeth to smooth them (Note: do not sand or over-polish the teeth). If the hard base-plate develops lumps, those may need to be pressed or sanded down. (If you would like, it’s okay to use a small Dremel type drill-sander or a simple manicure polishing hand tool to make such adjustments.) If the softer Nuvoflex™ coating becomes textured or rough, try gently reheating and then smoothing the surfaces with damp thumbs and/or fingertips.
