No fixed number of appointments for everyone
A treatment consists of several contact moments. Which intermediate steps are required depends on your oral situation and the chosen method.
The possible contact moments
- Introduction (intake): discuss wishes, oral situation, health, expectations and costs.
- First impression or scan: create an initial registration as a basis for the treatment design.
- Final impression or scan, if needed: accurately register the mouth for the final fit.
- Bite registration, if necessary: record the position, height, and mutual relationship of the jaws.
- Try-in, if needed: check shape, position, bite and appearance together and adjust if necessary.
- Fitting: place the definitive prosthesis, check it and provide maintenance explanations.
- Aftercare: guide adjustment, assess pressure points and adjust if necessary.
The precise route and number of appointments may differ per patient.
Personal assessment remains central
Even when we scan, design, mill or print digitally, assessment, try-ins, finishing and aftercare remain hands-on professional work.
