Wax Occlusals

The copings are prepared as usual, using wax or acrylic.	To compensate for the thicknesses of the gnathoflex, the bite is raised by .5 mm.	Fill Gnathoflex with wax and wait until the wax begins to gel.	Once the wax has hardened, place the Gnathoflex occlusal onto the coping.

Close the articulator in the position of the maximal intercuspidation and attach the occlusal to the coping using a drop of wax. Depending on the situation, two or more Gnathoflex occlusals can be placed simultaneously or one after the other. The contact can be strongly varied by raising or lowering the antagonist.

High-luster, gnathologically shaped wax occlusals with perfect contact to the antagonist are the perfect basis for smooth and precision-fit casting. Gnathoflex Premium helps to save time during the preparation of the wax model as well as during finishing of crowns and bridges

Acrylic Occlusals

Prepare the structure as usual and apply crown and bridge acrylic (dentine).	No separating agent is required when filling the Gnathoflex with acrylic. First fill the cusps with incisal and then fill the mold completely with dentine.	Place Gnathoflex on the bridge, close the articulator and polymerize with UV light in order to fix the bite.	Then the bridge is removed, interdental contact areas are applied and polymerization is completed.

Ceramic Occlusals

The opaque is fired on the metal structure. Hold the Gnathoflex with the tweezers and apply Isoflex insulating liquid onto the inner surface. Tap several times on the Gnathoflex to remove excess Isoflex insulating liquid. Fill incisal into the cusps and brush out form the cusps toward he margins. Fill the Gnathoflex with dentine and place on the bridge structure. Close the articulator and turn it. Fix the Gnathoflex occlusals to the bridge using dentine material. Dry the object and carefully remove the Gnathoflex. The other occlusals are prepared accordingly.
