How to optimise your splint workflow with Dr Rohit Chaturvedi

The records you capture and the clinical direction you give your lab influence every stage of splint fabrication, fitting, and review.

Connecting these decisions in a streamlined workflow can help reduce unnecessary appointments and chairside adjustments while supporting patient understanding and ongoing care.

In this live webinar, principal dentist and digital dentistry educator Dr Rohit Chaturvedi joins Avant Dental’s Ian Feigen and Richard Salter to walk through his seven-step splint workflow.

Dr Chaturvedi will explain how he uses routine scans to discuss tooth wear, records the bite for splint fabrication, and selects splint type and material according to his clinical objective. He’ll also explore how dentists can draw on their lab technician’s material expertise while retaining responsibility for clinical decisions.

The session will cover:

  • Using baseline scans for patient education and splint fabrication
  • Explaining the purpose of a splint to support consistent wear
  • Understanding open-bite records and the role of virtual articulation
  • Considering comfort, flexibility, and adjustment when selecting materials
  • Communicating the intended splint design and clinical requirements to the lab
  • Checking fit, occlusal contacts, and explaining wear and care
  • Reviewing the patient’s response and the condition of the appliance
Hosts: Ian Feigen, Head of Technical, and Richard Salter, Head of Business
