Built to your prescription.

THE DETAIL

How we build it.

Most dental labs in the San Antonio corridor route occlusal appliance cases through a shared production floor where the person who checked in your case is not the person who built it. Dani Dental assigns a named technician to each case. That technician's direct contact information ships with the appliance. If a fit issue surfaces chairside, you call the technician who made it, not a general support queue. National-network labs often advertise low per-unit pricing on night guards, then recoup margin through shipping minimums, handling fees, or turnaround tiers that push standard cases to 10 or 12 business days unless you pay for rush. Dani's pricing structure is flat and stated up front. No tiered pricing based on monthly volume thresholds. A practice ordering 4 appliances a month sees the same per-unit cost as a practice ordering 40. The fabrication quality difference shows up most clearly in occlusal contacts. Appliances built on articulated models with full arch data fit differently than those approximated from a single-arch impression. Dani accepts and actively encourages full-arch digital submissions because the resulting appliance seats better, adjusts less, and stays in the patient's mouth rather than in a drawer. That outcome matters to your patients and to your chair utilization.

GETTING CASES TO US

Logistics, to the bench.

San Antonio practices ordering occlusal splints and night guards from Dani Dental get a single point of contact for the full case, from prescription review through delivery. The lab fabricates three appliance configurations: hard acrylic for heavy bruxers, soft thermoplastic for patients with sensitivity concerns, and dual-laminate for cases where comfort and durability both matter. Every appliance is trimmed, polished, and checked against the prescription before it ships. No batch-processing middlemen. Digital submissions are accepted via intraoral scan file (STL or PLY) through the lab's upload portal, or you can ship a PVS impression the traditional way. Either route, the technician assigned to your case reviews the occlusal contacts against your prescription notes and flags discrepancies before fabrication begins, not after. That one step alone cuts the back-and-forth that eats into appointment schedules. For San Antonio offices that run high volume on TMD or bruxism cases, Dani Dental can set up a standing prescription template so repeat orders move faster. Turnaround for established accounts with consistent scan quality typically runs 5 business days from file receipt. Rush options are available for cases with a documented clinical urgency.

COMMON QUESTIONS

What practices ask

What file formats do you accept for digital night guard orders from San Antonio offices?
The lab accepts STL and PLY files from any major intraoral scanner, including iTero, 3Shape TRIOS, and Medit. Upload through the case submission portal and the assigned technician will confirm receipt within 4 business hours. If you prefer to ship a PVS impression, use the prepaid label from the Doctor Kit and turnaround starts on the day the impression arrives at the lab.
Can I order a dual-laminate night guard, or only hard or soft?
All three configurations are fabricated in-house: hard acrylic, soft thermoplastic, and dual-laminate (hard outer shell with a soft inner liner). Dual-laminate is a good fit for patients who need the protection of hard acrylic but have reported discomfort with rigid appliances in the past. Specify the type on the prescription form and the technician will confirm the choice before starting.
What is the standard turnaround time for occlusal splints shipped to San Antonio?
Standard turnaround is 5 to 7 business days from the date a clean scan or impression is received. Established accounts with consistent file quality and a standing prescription template often hit the 5-day mark. Rush turnaround at 3 business days is available for documented clinical urgency cases. Contact the lab before submitting a rush case so production can be scheduled.
How do you handle a case where the appliance does not seat correctly?
The technician who fabricated the appliance is your first call. Their direct line ships with every case. If the fit issue is a lab error confirmed by the technician review, the remake is produced at no charge and prioritized in the production queue. The sub-2.5% remake rate reflects how often that call needs to happen, but when it does, the resolution is direct, not routed through a support desk.
Do you offer volume pricing tiers for San Antonio practices ordering multiple appliances per month?
Pricing is flat per unit regardless of monthly volume. A practice ordering 4 occlusal appliances a month pays the same per-unit rate as one ordering 40. There are no minimum order thresholds and no handling fees layered on top of the base price. The rate sheet is provided in the Doctor Kit and does not change based on account size.
What information should I include on the prescription form for an occlusal splint case?
Include appliance type (hard, soft, or dual-laminate), arch (upper, lower, or both), any specific occlusal contact instructions, and the patient's bruxism or TMD history if relevant to the design. For digital submissions, attach full-arch scans when available. If you have a standing template for repeat patients, note the template name on the form and the technician will pull the baseline specs before reviewing the new scan.
