Live Lab Session: Crafting a Splint & Wraparound

In this live stream, I walk through part of an orthodontic lab workflow,( Wire-bending to Acrylic Application) from prepping models and bending wires to creating splints and wraparound appliances. Watch as I share tips on using acrylic, achieving the perfect occlusion, and managing retention for both splints and retainers. Learn how to balance your materials, troubleshoot common issues like air bubbles, and ensure a strong final product using techniques like the pressure pot method and canine guidance. Whether you're an orthodontic technician or a lab owner, this session provides valuable insights into efficient lab practices and problem-solving strategies. Don't miss the full tutorial on trimming and finalizing appliances, and be sure to catch tips for organizing your workflow to maximize productivity.
