This list encompasses a range of inquiries, such as:<\/p><\/div><\/div><div><div><p><strong>Q: Does it require a morning aligner?<\/strong><br \/>A: Every flexTAP comes with an AM Aligner morning repositioner, which is highly recommended for patients to use every morning after the use of an oral appliance. It takes less than 10 minutes to fit.<\/p><p><strong>Q: What material is it made out of?<\/strong><br \/>A: It is made of the new irradiated ThermAcryl, which does not contain BPAs. Trays can be adjusted if too tight or loose by using warm water.\u00a0<strong>Do not use hot water <\/strong>for tray fitting adjustments. The post\/hard frame of the flexTAP is made of polycarbonate.\u00a0<\/p><p><strong>Q: What is the lateral excursion range?<\/strong><br \/>A: There is no limitation left and right. flexTAP allows the jaw to go wherever it wants, but the tendency is to go back to its most neutral position at the midline.<\/p><p><strong>Q: Can we buy it in Canada?<\/strong><br \/>A: Yes, it is available at Rotsaert Dental Laboratory.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d22010f elementor-align-center elementor-widget
