Hi,

If you have experience of earmould impression taking, I would appreciate your advice.

As a beginner I'm not sure what the best sequence is.

I know you start injecting the resin with the syringe/gun nozzle at the otoblock ... but how do you clearly define the concha and
helix edges etc whilst maintaining flow without creases, air bubbles etc? What sequence/movements/tricks do YOU use to get a
precise, fault free impression?

[I have tried various sequences whilst making the impression - but my results are variable ... I'm sure there must be a "best" way]

Thanks!

regards,

Richard
