Mock-up technique consists in transferring to the patient’s mouth the possible outcome of the treatment, by means of a tooth- colored material such as acrylic resin, composites, or bis-acryl. It can be used in every treatment that compromises the patient’s look should be approved first.

This article describes the protocol for an indirect mock-up done with bis-acryl step by step. The mock-up is a simple, low cost, and non- invasive way to approach most of our esthetic cases. Furthermore, it improves the patient’s acceptance to procedures and also saves time spent otherwise making corrections on the final restoration. The mock-up is an important tool for a successful treatment sequence. Key
