      Can you guys help me with this case

      Pt does not want to remove the bar to make a new snap on denture. Her existing denture is broken! 24 year old denture!

      In this case i am assuming that i have to do a chair side pick up impression for the bar, i just don’t know what is the bar brand and what kind of clips i should use ! Can you please help me with that ?

      I am guessing it is a hader bar ???

      • My best advice is to call your lab and have a good discussion on what they are able to do the most accurate as it will vary greatly depending on the lab. I’m sure you will be able to get the impressions you need and info for lab use what you have. Any other thoughts @ivan-chicchon ???

        • Hi @nairysekayan Preat.com has been such a tremendous resource for me. I would go on there and download some of their guides on bar attachments. These look like Hader Bar Clips btw.

          Also you want to make sure to use LOTS of block out when you do the pick up. I mean LOTS of it. Use wax or putty to get into the big undercuts
