Benefits:
- Bonding of the prefabricated (machined) titanium sphere
in to the completed casting assures an accurate size and smooth sphere for
minimal wear and a precise fit by eliminating sandblasting during devesting
and rubber wheeling necessary in a cast sphere.
- Saves time and money
- This option is highly recommended over the plastic
castable sphere (1281).

After wax try in, select the proper plastic keeper
(for maximum esthetics and function) for either a
removable partial denture (FIG 1), or for a recess in an
overdenture (FIG 2 & 3). |

5 |
| Position the appropriate plastic keeper in passive contact with the
alveolar ridge using the RE P7 paralleling mandrel (FIG
4). Connect the keeper with
wax while keeping the papilla free. Remove the paralleling mandrel and complete the
support and connection (FIG 5). |
6 |
7 |
| Utilize a two stage investment process--fill the keeper with investment to avoid
air entrapments (FIG 6). Do NOT use
any debubblizer. After polishing, check the fit between the Titanium
male and the keeper (FIG 7).
Sandblast both parts and clean with a steam cleaner to
assure complete bonding. |
|

9 |
| Mix Ceka Site (1:1) (FIG 8) and apply inside the keeper prior to
positioning the Titanium male (FIG
9).
Please note: you will need to mix a new batch of Ceka Site for the
attachment on the opposing side, as the working time
will have expired on the material remaining on the mixing pad. |
10 |
11 |
| Position the male with the 1201 P paralleling
mandrel. After 5-10 minutes setting time, the excess composite
(FIG 10) can be removed
(FIG 11).
|
|
12 |
13 |
| Duplicate the master cast and abutments.
Prepare the refractory model (FIG 12).
Completely surround the
replica of the male and keeper with a thick layer of wax and provide retention for
acrylic resin (FIG 13).
Cast and finish the chrome framework.

After the crown is tried in, and a new pickup impression is taken, it is
preferable to process
over a metal analogue male. Take the impression, and index the Preci Clix
1201D analogues into the impression. Pour up model, and the analogue
males will provide an exact representation (FIG
14a-d) for processing the female. |

|
| Using the 1222 Clix Insertion tool, insert the yellow
female into the metal housing
(FIG 15). Check to verify that the female fits into the frame. Place the
black spacer over the male ball, and then place the female and
housing over the ball and spacer (FIG
16).
Place block-out material over the junction of the black
spacer and the titanium male to assure that no denture base resin gets into
the female. Connect the female housing to the cast frame with
self-cure acrylic resin. Process the female housing into the prosthesis
(FIG 17). |
