Straight-to-finish
This option skips the wax rim and try-in stages. This is a good option for cases where the occlusion is easily distinguishable and stable, typically established in patients who are missing fewer than 5 teeth.
Wax Rims
Wax rims are important in establishing the occlusal relationship of the jaws. In cases where there are few remaining teeth, wax rims will help ensure the case is set properly for function and aesthetics.
Try-In
Try-ins can be done as a framework only or with the teeth set in wax. This is a good option for cases involving anterior teeth. It is important to note that we do not offer digital wax-ups for partials as they are handmade.
