pLEASE rEAD ALL STEPS BEFORE sTARTING
- Before you begin, choose which impression tray fits your mouth the best.
- Mix one of each colour putty together until the white colour disappears and the putty reaches a consistent colour. Take no longer than 30 seconds to complete this stage.
- Roll the putty into a sausage-like shape and place it inside the tray, ensuring there is plenty of putty at the front of the tray.
- Keeping the tray handle aligned with your nose, locate your front teeth and push the tray upwards as far as possible, then bite down firmly at the back for a couple of seconds. Keep the tray still for 2 minutes to allow the putty to set.
- After two minutes, remove the tray from inside your mouth. It may feel tight against your teeth, in which case a gentle rocking motion of the tray may be applied to remove it.
- Wrap the impression in tissue and place it in the plastic bag supplied. Finally place the bag and your lab ticket inside the free post envelope. Please then take it to your local post office or parcel box.

A little bit about us...
Producing appliances of the highest quality is our number one priority, ensuring every patient is 100% happy with their appliance. In order to maintain our high standards, we are accredited with DAMAS, the Dental Appliance Manufacturers Audit Scheme, which is a quality management system, whereby we are audited every year to ensure that the stringent standards are being met.
Our team of skilled, GDC registered technicians ensure that every appliance is made with care and precision and the rest of our team back up their experience and knowledge to provide you with a professional service which we are very proud of. The technicians all have well over ten years experience and/or have BTEC/City & Guilds/Foundation degree qualifications from the UK. You can find out more about dental professionals and the GDC at www.gdc-uk.org
Our gumshields are all hand-made by dental technicians, so you can be sure that they are truly the professional option.
All of our gumshields and other appliances are custom made using a model of your teeth so that they are a perfect fit. We do not recommend the boil and bite versions. They are unsafe and will not provide protection in the same way as a custom made gumshield.
Our team are here to help Monday - Friday; 8:30am - 5:30pm so if you need any help or advice, just give us a call.
