Diagnostic wax-ups or mock-ups are a great visual tool for patient presentation of possible restorative options that can be achieved, showing form, function and esthetics.
The wax-ups can be designed with a simple one coloured wax up technique to a full multi-coloured creative diagnostic wax-up with pink gingival wax for a life like appearance for patient presentation.
All diagnostic wax-ups can be duplicated so that other dental devices can be fabricated from the initial wax-up; these include implant stents, preparation guides and temporary splints.
Implant Stents
Implant stents can be fabricated from pre-op study models or Diagnostic-Wax up. The stent is designed to provide the clinician with an accurate guide for surgical placement of implants.
Preparation Guides
Preparation Guides are helpful achieving optimal reduction of tooth surface for different types of restorative products. Vacuum formed from pre-op study models or diagnostic wax-up
Temporary Splints
Temporary splints are fabricated by vacuum forming 0.80 clear splints over a duplicated model of a Diagnostic wax-up or pre-op study model to aid in temporizing prepared teeth or implants.
