Hi,
I’m new to the jewellery community and was looking for some advice.
I am trying to make gold caps for teeth and I am struggling with which wax is best too create a wax mould and which casting process is the most efficient.
So far I have used green ferris wax and melted it onto the plaster mould of the teeth and used a dremel tool to shape it however I feel like there must be an easier way to produce more standardised caps. I have also used red mould a wax but found that did not hold shape enough.
The casting techniques I have tried are lost wax casting and delft clay casting, neither of which were entirely successful.
Please help me !
All advice regarding this topic and just jewellery in general is highly appreciated!
Thankyou,
Pippa
