How to Take Your Dental Impressions at Home – Step-by-Step Guide 🦷

Welcome to our dental impression walkthrough! Follow this simple step-by-step guide to ensure your impressions are accurate and approved by our team.

πŸ“ Before You Begin:

βœ… Brush, Floss, and Wash Your Hands: Start with a clean mouth and hands.
βœ… Read the Instruction Booklet Thoroughly: Get familiar with each step before starting.
βœ… Gather Essentials: Have a tissue and a timer ready for the process.

πŸͺ₯ Step 1: Choose the Right Tray Size

Your kit includes two sets of trays:

  • Orange Trays: Larger size
  • Blue Trays: Smaller size

Test the fit before mixing your putty. Make sure:
βœ” The tray covers your back molars.
βœ” Your teeth do not touch the sides of the tray.

πŸ’‘ Pro Tip: The tray handle should align with the tip of your nose when inserted.

πŸŒ€ Step 2: Mix the Blue and White Putty

  1. Set a timer for 90 seconds for mixing.
  2. Start mixing the blue and white putty using a push-and-fold motion until you get a solid blue color.
  3. Roll the putty into a log shape and evenly distribute it into the mesh-lined tray.

πŸ’‘ Warm Climate Tip: Store the putty in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours to slow hardening.

🦷 Step 3: Take Your Impression

  1. Insert the tray into your mouth, ensuring proper alignment.
  2. Bite down naturally in one smooth motion. Avoid clenching or shifting your teeth.
  3. Hold the tray in place for 5-6 minutes until the putty hardens.
  4. Avoid talking or moving your jaw during the processβ€”breathe through your nose to prevent gagging.

πŸ“Έ Step 4: Submit Photos of Your Impressions

After removing your impressions:
βœ… Rinse and let them dry.
βœ… Take clear photos from multiple angles (top and bottom views).
βœ… Submit your photos to our team for feedback.

Our team will review your impressions and respond within 24-48 hours with feedback or approval for your second impression.

πŸ’‘ Helpful Tips for Success:

βœ” Practice inserting the tray before mixing the putty.
βœ” If the putty hardens too quickly, refrigerate the second set.
βœ” Push excess putty toward the front of your teeth for full coverage.
