How To Order Evident Nightguard with Fabrication – Featuring Derby Dental Lab

September 21, 2024

You can now get your Evident Nightguard designs fabricated by using one of our preferred fabrication partner. This allows you to have more control on your cases and provides an end-to-end connected solution for efficiency.

Here are three simple steps:

Step 1. Gather Information During The Patient Visit (Record Appointment)

1.1 Capture Intra-oral Scans From Your Patient (Record Appointment)

Utilize intraoral scans to create a digital mold of your patient’s mouth. Three scans are required to ensure comprehensive and accurate data for treatment planning.

Full Upper Arch: A complete scan of the upper teeth and gums.
Full Lower Arch: A complete scan of the lower teeth and gums.
Bite: Make sure to scan the full arch for the most accurate bite registration.

Note: Double check if the bite is misaligned.

1.2 Compile Your Patient’s Treatment Plan Information

After completing your patient record appointment, you will need to gather and organize essential details for the nightguard. Follow these steps to ensure you have all the necessary information.

Collect Patient Demographics:
Patient’s name
Contact information
Date of birth
Document the Chief Complaint:
The main reason the patient is seeking treatment (e.g. concerns about bruxism, TMJ I issues, soreness, headaches, clicking or popping sounds in the jaw, or disrupted sleep)
Summarize Diagnostic Findings:
Results from the clinical exam
Intraoral photos
Radiographs
Any other pertinent diagnostic tests
Record Treatment Goals:
Patient’s desired outcomes
Discuss key aspects, including protecting tooth, reducing muscle tension and associated pain, alleviating temporomandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction symptoms, and improving sleep quality.

Once you have compiled all this information, you are ready to submit the case to Evident for the nightguard.
