Tooth Gem Retention Troubleshooting Checklist $9.00

If your tooth gems aren’t lasting as long as they should, it’s not random — and it’s not your luck.

Most retention issues come down to a handful of overlooked steps in your process.

This checklist is designed to help you quickly identify and correct the most common causes of premature gem failure using the same diagnostic approach I use in real applications.

Inside, you’ll learn how to troubleshoot:

• Curing light distance, angle, and output
• Enamel prep mistakes that weaken retention
• Adhesive and bonding inconsistencies
• Placement issues that lead to early pop-offs
• Material and curing factors most techs overlook

This isn’t guesswork — it’s a step-by-step process to help you pinpoint exactly what’s going wrong and fix it.

Whether you’re new or experienced, this checklist will help you:
• Improve retention consistency
• Reduce client issues and reapplications
• Apply with more confidence and control

If you’ve ever thought,
“Why didn’t that one last?”
— this is your answer.

This is the same troubleshooting framework used to refine technique and achieve consistent, long-term results.
