The nance palatal button employs traditional fabrication methods, involving lab work with metal bands, stainless-steel wire, and an acrylic button, were time-consuming and prone to fit issues due to band shifts during impression transfer. To improve efficiency and fit, a new chairside technique has been developed. This method uses a light cure composite material to create the button directly in the dental chair, eliminating the need for lab procedures and allowing precise intraoral positioning and curing.
