Indications & Contraindications
Setting Patient Expectations
Before you begin, explain to the patient that you’re going to be using the latest technology. Focus on explaining we can “3D Image” your denture and it becomes permanently digital. In the future, we won’t have to “start from scratch” because we have this as a baseline.
When the patient has an existing prosthetic this means they’ve already had an experience with “old style” impressions and processes. This is an opportunity to create a new, positive experience. The best way to do this is by sharing with the patient about the amazing solutions you provide.
First Clinical Visit
In this visit, you will capture the key diagnostic impressions needed to complete the case
First Visit Keys to Success
- Before you begin, mark and/or record the vertical of the patient.
- Discuss with patient what they do and don’t like about their existing denture. Include notes to the laboratory in regards to requested changes.
- Take a quality reline impression. Re-check the vertical to confirm any changes. Communicate any change in vertical (due to impression material) to the lab.
- Obtain an opposing scan
- Obtain a bite scan with the denture in the mouth in correct bite with opposing arch.
- Scan the denture by itself (removed from the mouth) using the Denture Scan technique for your scanner.
- Take the Hero Picture
- Remove the reline impression and return denture to patient at end of appointment.
First Laboratory Procedure
At the lab, we will do Basic Smile Design and evaluation, design the denture according to any specifications required, and produce a 3D Printed, high quality, repeatable denture with a 10-Year Vault Guarantee.
- Basic Smile Design
- Denture Design
- Denture Production
The Lab Will Return:
- The clinical try-in in whichever form the doctor and lab decide on.
Second Clinical Visit (Try-In)
The lab will return to you a monolithic try-in.
These solutions are based on Calibrating the practice goals and lab procedures for you and your client. Talk to us more about try-in options.
Expected Materials to Deliver to Russellville Dental Lab
- Digital Impression of try-in if any adjustements are made.
- If no adjustments, simply request final denture from lab.
- Some try-in solutions can be worn indefinitely. Talk to us about what’s right for your patient.
Second Laboratory Procedure
If there are any changes neccesary to the setup as it was sent to you, we can make those changes from the scan of the denture done chairside. This saves shipping time and expense.
We will fabricate the final denture based on your notes and feedback from the clinical try-in.
Final Clinical Visit
Delivery
The patient’s new, digitally designed and fabricated denture should be ready for delivery with minimal adjustments.
Your patient’s new denture is now protected by the 10 Year Digital Vault, allowing you and the patient to access clinical records in future visits unlike you’ve ever had access to.
