Immediate Pontic Fabrication Using Flowable Resin
Volume 50 : Number 3 : Page 0 : Mar 2016
In 2006, I described a technique for creating a chairside pontic by taking a bite-registration impression of the patient's adjacent or contralateral tooth. The method was presented as an alternative to reshaping a prefabricated denture tooth, which might not be readily available in an orthodontic office. This article describes another option for immediate chairside pontic fabrication, using flowable resin and a mixing pad.

A Digitally Planned Tandem Skeletal Expander and Hybrid Aligner Approach
Volume 57 : Number 1 : Page 32 : Jan 2023
This article describes a two-phase approach for treatment of transverse maxillary deficiency in adult patients, involving an initial stage of maxillary expansion with the Tandem Skeletal Expander followed by an orthodontic stage using clear aligner therapy. A typical case is presented.
