If you completing the denture try-in appointment and the try-in denture is too tight and requires significant adjustments, please follow the following steps to ensure the next try-in and/or final denture is correct.
NOTE: If it is preferred, you may aggressively relieve the entirety of the intaglio surface and take a new wash impression. Just follow the steps in the Try-in Denture is Too Loose or Rocking article after relieving the denture.
- Apply pressure-indicating paste (PIP) to the intaglio of the try-in denture.
- Insert try-in and have the patient go through muscle movements.
- Remove try-in denture from the patient’s mouth and adjust any areas that show blanching of the PIP.
- Repeat until optimal fit has been achieved.
- Remove any residual PIP using soap, warm water, and a denture brush.
-
Scan try-in denture(s) extraorally 360 degrees (Upper and/or Lower)
- No wash impression is needed.
- If applicable, scan the opposing arch (Upper or Lower) intraorally.
- Scan the full arch bite extraorally or scan the left and right bite intraorally.
Please proceed through all the steps outlined in the Denture Try-in Guide to provide your detailed feedback so we can complete your case.
