How to make your impressions

Top tips for making a great impression

  • 1Push evenly through the back and front teeth at the same time, then pull your lips over the front of the tray. Don’t push the front or back down first, otherwise you’ll get drag marks.
  • 2Press the skin between your top lip and your nose (for upper arch) or between your lower lip and chin (for lower arch). This helps to capture the shape of each tooth and gumline. Wait 2-3 minutes and then carefully remove.
  • 3Send us your photos of your impressions before you return them to [email protected]
  • 4Review your impressions against the checklist below.

What to avoid

Sadly, this is what a bad impression looks like. Avoid making these common mistakes.

  • Broken teeth

    The teeth have broken through the putty and the tray is visible.

  • Impression not deep

    This impression is not deep enough. The gums and molars cannot be seen.

  • Lack of pressing

    Drag marks caused by lack of pressing. Shape of teeth & gumline are not visible.

  • Lip not over the front tray

    The lip was not over the front of the tray. Teeth are not close enough to the front of the tray.

Sorry! We won’t be able to use your
impressions if they look like this.

Common mistakes

  • Not watching the how-to video
  • Moving the tray or your teeth during the process
  • Not pulling your lip over the outside of the tray
  • Talking (we know – it’s hard!)
  • Removing the putty from the tray – leave it in
Tip

You’ll be making 2 upper & 2 lower impressions of your teeth
