Itsoclear - a clear clasp

[toothwiz]

Anyone using these clasps from Keystone...what do you think?

I've tried these in the past, I never got good enough or confident enough to use them on a real case though. A lot more technique sensitive then they make them look and even when they look good they don't look as good as a injected clasp so just never caught on here.

I use them. Use a heat gun to bend them. Use them for provisionals, takes about a minute to bend and position.

These clasps do not look like they have enough retention on them of course I can't see it on a surveyor!

I use them they'r not so bad, when a dentist ask me about it I tell them its not like a wire clasp and it is breakable and they will pass that to the patient... I have done some 6 months ago and they still in the mouth.

Nice work! The clasps look good. What kind of teeth? I like the staining...how did you do that?

The provisional was constructed using GC Naturecryl MC. The teeth are Tribos 501 by Gebdi Dental. Nowak sells them. The staining of pits and fissures is done with GC Gradia Intensive. I try to make everything provisional or not, as top shelf as possible.

"I try to make everything provisional or not, as top shelf as possible." It's my way of thinking too.
