A one-day, hands-on course for dental technicians on constructing and adjusting Silensor-sl mandibular advancement anti-snoring splints, including records, lab steps and compliance.
Making Anti-snoring Devices (Silensor-sl MAS) — hands-on laboratory training
Snoring affects a significant proportion of the population and can be linked to obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA)—making the quality, fit and compliance of mandibular advancement devices more important than ever. This in-person, one-day course is designed to give dental technicians and CDTs the practical, step-by-step skills and confidence to construct and adjust Silensor-sl Mandibular Adjustment Splints (MAS) to a high standard.
Delivered by Giles Bradley (RDT Dental Technician), the day focuses on real-world laboratory workflows and the professional responsibilities that come with producing anti-snoring appliances as part of a dentist–technician team.
What you’ll learn
By the end of the course, you’ll have a clearer understanding of:
Core principles behind anti-snoring devices and mandibular advancement therapy
Impression and bite record requirements, including use of a protrusion gauge
Model preparation: blocking out and duplicating master models, and casting secondary working models
Techniques for increasing protrusion safely and predictably
The construction and assembly process for Silensor-sl MAS
