3D Printed Lucitone Dentures

Conventionally made dentures have historically been a pain-point for many dental practices. Lengthy turnaround times and adjustments go hand-in-hand with dentures made the old-fashioned way, but digitally printed dentures will change all of that. Whether you take impressions conventionally or digitally, Great Impressions can make you a premium, 3d printed high-impact denture. Below is the process to make that happen.

3D Printed Digital Dentures From Physical Impressions

Step 1 : Preliminary Impressions

Clinician: Takes a PVS of the patient, ensuring that as much ridge as possible is captured.

Lab: Fabricates occlusal rim(s).

Step 2 : Occlusal Rim Records

Clinician: Place occlusal rim(s) in patient’s mouth and make necessary markings to establish VDO, midline, incisal edge, and occlusal plane.

Lab: Fabricates monoblock try-in based on input from occlusal rim(s).

Step 3 : Monoblock Try-In

Step 4 : Final Delivery

Clinician: Place try-in(s) in patient's mouth and ensure correct fit, teeth positioning, bite, etc... If adjustments are needed, notate and take pics.
