Diagnostic Wax Up

Every masterpiece begins with a plan.

No architect would dream of raising a grand hotel without first sketching every beam and brace—and in dentistry, the same principle holds true.

A series of records and measurements are collected at the start of treatment—photographs, X-rays, intraoral scans, diagnostic models, and sometimes even a speech analysis. While this process may feel unfamiliar, each step plays a crucial role in understanding the current condition of the teeth, bone, and bite. It’s all part of gathering the right information to develop a thoughtful, customized plan.

Using careful measurements, the prosthodontist designs a diagnostic wax-up. This wax replica serves as the blueprint for the future, revealing the necessary changes before any work begins. It’s a bit like laying out the ballroom before the first tile is set—ensuring every detail lines up just so.

With the wax-up in place, the path ahead becomes clear, predictable, and beautifully constructed—because a smile, much like a skyline, should be built to last.
