A dental preparation delivery system includes a soft malleable wax sealing strip bonded to a wax base strip. The peripheral outline of a model dentition extends into the thickness of the sealing strip to form a receptacle. A border of the sealing strip completely surrounds the outline. The receptacle is filled with a dental preparation to be administered and the sealing strip is overlaid with a film. In use, the film is removed, the system is bent to an arch shape and the outline is registered with the user's buccal dentition. Lateral force is applied in a lingual direction against the base strip to reshape the sealing strip for sealing contact of the border against the periphery of the user's buccal dentition, while leaving the preparation in contact with remaining buccal surfaces.
A dental preparation delivery system comprising a sealing strip formed of a soft malleable wax and a base strip, the base strip having a higher elastic modulus than the sealing strip, the strips being adhered to one another, a receptacle extending into the thickness of the sealing strip, the receptacle comprising a peripheral outline of a dentition, the peripheral outline being defined by a continuous internal wall within the sealing strip, the peripheral outline being surrounded by a border, wherein
A dental preparation delivery system comprising a laminate formed of a the sealing strip and a base strip, sealing strip being soft and malleable, the base strip having a higher elastic modulus than the sealing strip, the strips being adhered to one another, a receptacle extending into the thickness of the sealing strip, the receptacle including a peripheral outline in the shape of a model dentition, the peripheral outline being defined by a continuous internal wall within the sealing strip, the sealing strip including a border extending between the peripheral outline and the outer periphery of the sealing strip, a dental preparation filled within the receptacle, the delivery system further comprising a removable film overlay covering the dental preparation and the border and which forms a chamber encasing said dental preparation.
