[QUOTE="RetainerDesigner, post: 3640, member: 40"] I have done the "oops!" method before with doctors. Both on purpose and not on purpose. This is where you make one horseshoe shape and when you deliver it tell the doctor "Oops, I just realized that this is horseshoe shape. Sorry old habit. Go ahead and use this one and if you need full coverage for this patient I will make it free of charge." THis happened to me a couple of months ago . I have 2 doctors that use upper wraps almost exclusively. But one likes the loops over the 3's and the other like the loops over the 4s. I was always worried about mixing them up, one day I did and made the wrap with the loops over the 4's for the other doctor. I caught it too late and went ahead and delivered it. Told him the same thing if he didnt like I t I would replace it for free. Well he liked it better and now I make all my wraps with the loops over the 4's a lot easier to keep up with, for us slow techs! I am like Mike I use an acrylic wheel to shape the palette to accept the rag wheel. If the acrylic wheel cant get in the palate I know the rag wheel wont. [/QUOTE]
