🦷 Step 2: Take Your Impression
An accurate impression is the most important step in making your appliance fit properly.
📦 Your kit will include everything you need to make your impression at home.
📽️ Be sure to watch our instructional video before starting.
✅ Tips for a successful impression:
-
Capture all your teeth—especially molars and the palate for upper appliances.
-
Do not move or reposition the putty once it's in place.
-
Send photos of your impression for approval before mailing.
🧪 If your impression is distorted:
-
We’ll notify you and send a replacement kit.
-
A remake kit is $14.95 + shipping.
📬 Step 3: Send It Back to Us
Depending on your kit:
-
Use the included return label (for initial impressions).
-
Or ship using your preferred carrier (for remake kits or additional impressions).
⏱️ Please allow 2–5 days for the kit to arrive at our lab.
🏭 Step 4: We Craft Your Appliance
Our experienced lab technicians get to work handcrafting your appliance using your impression.
⏳ Turnaround time:
-
Standard production: 12–15 business days
-
Rush option: Add $45 (Not available during summer)
🛠️ We use industry-standard materials and precise processes to create your fully custom dental/orthodontic devices.
📦 Step 5: Delivery to Your Door
