Study Notes
- Process for making triads or composite base plates for setups or bike rooms involves blocking out undercuts with red clay to prevent model damage
- Vaseline is applied to prevent adhesion of triad to stone after curing
- Triad-like material is adapted carefully to engage soft tissue surfaces, hamular notches, and post dam area
- Material is cut and pressed into place, then cured in a light box for five minutes
- Similar process is followed for lower base plate after applying vaseline
- Base plate material is adapted to lingual areas first before the facial side to avoid thinning out
- Excess material is trimmed to form borders between 3-4mm thickness, with a rounded edge for patient comfort
- Frenum areas are opened up to accommodate tissue movement and prevent base plate dislodging
- Land areas are defined to separate tissue bearing surface from the model edge, ensuring accurate flasking during processing
- Final step involves making bite rims using the prepared base plates
