Dentures shouldnt be flexible or it would be impossible to bite hard stuff.

Have any members had flexible partial dentures fitted ?
I hear of Valplast , TCS etc and that they are comfortable .
I’ve noticed that some friends with NHS partial denture plates have a lisp a sort of siss sound like they produce more saliva , it doesn’t sound like their natural speech .
Thanks
