Self-Impression System (S-IS)

Our Self-Impression System (S-IS) allows you to create a custom dental mold for which a form-fitting mouthguard can be produced. Each Self-Impression System Kit comes with an order form with a list of color choices available. Once the completed order form and your impression is returned, we will begin constructing your athletic mouthguard.

How to use the Self-Impression System

Have the athlete try on the mouthguard tray. If the tray does not extend too far back, use it as is. If you feel the tray is too "long," cut it with scissors just behind the last hole.   Trim Mouthguard Tray
Bring water to a boil, then remove from heat.  Place the dental tray in the hot water for 30 seconds.   Boil Mouthguard Tray
Rinse in cool water for one second.   Cool Mouthguard Tray
Place in mouth and bite down firmly. Use your fingers to push the tray against your teeth and gums.   Bite Mouthguard Tray
Remove tray and rinse in cold water. After the tray completely dries, open the containers with the two colored impression material. Begin kneading the two putties together until they become a uniform color (approximately 30 seconds).   Knead Mouthguard Putty
After kneading, roll the material into a sausage shape and place just enough material into the tray to fill it. Keep a small amount of putty outside the tray.   Fill Mouthguard Tray With Putty
Place the tray with putty in the mouth and bite down firmly through the putty until you contact the tray. Pull your upper lip over the front of the the tray. Leave in mouth until the putty outside the tray becomes firm, approximately two and a half to three minutes.   Bite Firmly on Mouthguard Tray With Putty

Remove from mouth. A good impression should include all the teeth and extend to the gum tissue above the teeth.

NOTE: If impression of teeth does not look sufficient please contact us.
