[QUOTE="ddsTech, post: 303528, member: 1467"] I made this splint 2 years ago using Biocryl Ice from Great Lakes Orthodontics. It now looks like a car windshield that's been shattered into a million pieces. The only information given to me was that the patient claims she only brushed it with toothpaste and never soaked it in anything. The Dr. is thinking defective materials. If that were the case, I'd think there would be a ton of returned splints with this problem, but this is the first. My suspicion is that she's been soaking it in alcohol or some other alcohol-containing disinfectant. Have any of you folks seen this or have any clues what caused this? [ATTACH type="full" alt="32808"]32808[/ATTACH] Thanks for your help. Mark [/QUOTE]
