10. Dental Implants
We Love Implants!
One of our specialties are dental implant cases! Please send them our way and we
will be sure to take care of you!
Understanding
Reliable Dental Lab requests that each implant case has the following parts
provided and information: 1) Impression post 2) Analogues 3) Working
Abutment
• Our lab has to know the implant size and the system.
• If all implants parts are not with the case upon arrival to the dental lab the case
will not enter production until all parts are present in the lab.
• When a case question arises, the case is taken out of production which slows
the production down on that particular case.
12. Impressions
The Perfect Impression
The perfect impression is the first step toward a successful
prosthesis.
We request a separate bite registration with each case.
This will reduce bite, articulation, and occlusion issues.
A triple tray is NOT an adequate bite registration, and not
idea for bridgework. The guidelines below will lead to a
GOOD Impression.
13. Impressions
The Perfect Impression
• Uniform, homogeneous mix of impression material.
• Tray is sufficiently filled with impression material
• Rigid, sturdy impression tray
• No voids or pulls on margin detail
• Detailed margins with no tears or rough surfaces
• Tray should not be seen through the impression material.
• Good blend between heavy body and light body materials.
• Strong bond between impression material and tray
• No tooth contact with the tray
14. Impressions
Moving Forward with
Bad Impressions
Fitting issues for prep and
patient bit through impression
Margins are unclear and
there is excessive material
The majority of the time when we are asked to move
forward with cases like this they do not seat.
15. Impressions
Moving Forward with Bad Impressions
The lab does not ask for a new impression unless we truly believe that
your case will not be successful using the information that was provided.
Something else to keep in mind, if adjustments are made with a high speed it
creates small fractures in the porcelain which will cause chipping that may not be
visible at the time. A slow speed hand piece keeps the temperature low which
protects the product from We have received cases up to a year later where the
porcelain has fractured due to the original small fracture that was created during an
adjustment prior to seat.
Patients cannot bite down on an IPS. emax crown or any metal free product until it
has been cemented. IPS. emax gets its strength from cementation in the mouth prior
to that it is very fragile.
16. Bridgework
Best Practices
A full arch impression is needed when fabricating every bridge.
The reason behind this request is that all information in the mouth must be
captured in order to cast a stable bridge.
Bite registration and articulation can’t be established based off of a triple
tray impression. We must confirm the bite and evenly distribute the
amount of force for a proper bridge.
As a team we both need to be aware of what works best in the mouth. This
limits information needed at the time of model work, which typically
causes rocking, high & low occlusion. The units on a bridge must be taken
into careful consideration.
It is our standard to provide a metal try in on 4 units or more. We
understand that time is of the essence but doing so prevents mishaps such
as rocking, occlusion, and marginal issues.
18. The Future
Reliable Dental Lab is Here to Help!
As you grows and expand so does the lab. We are striving to keep up with

with milling and scanning.
We accept CAD/CAM on our portal. Lunch & learn is a new innovative
way for the doctor and lab to interact. This will help with team building
and communication. Schedule one with your Reliable Lab Techs today!
