Final cycle.
18. Remove the dies from the model and place a small ball of the selected shade of Sculpture Plus Body on the saddle area. Note:
If the pontic requires a thick composite overlay, consider layering a lighter body shade to achieve the desired shade result. Use
opaceous material as needed to enhance or modify the pontic shading.
19. Fully seat the dies back onto the model and ensure that the framework is stable. (Fig 14)
20. Adapt the body material to the buccal and lingual surfaces of the FibreKor framework to form the pontic. Leave embrasures open.

technique described in the Sculpture Plus Instruction Manual (Fig 15). Note: For maximum polymerization of Sculpture Plus
Composites, curing is recommended after each 1mm addition of material.
