Video Summary
In this video, Dr. David Flamenco demonstrates how to properly acquire a bite for an oral appliance using a scanner. He explains the tools used in the process, including metal retractors, a blade holder, an explorer with periodontal probe, and a bite registration material. He emphasizes the need for speed when working with fast-set materials and highlights the importance of ensuring the scanner is able to read the surface of the teeth. Dr. Flamenco demonstrates the step-by-step process of capturing the upper and lower arches, checking the bite and midlines, adjusting the incisal notch using a George gauge, and taking the bite registration. He also discusses the importance of capturing enough keratinized tissue to properly match the teeth. Finally, he explains how to remove excess material and performs the scanning process to acquire the bite accurately.
