10-Year Replacement Protection Explained

During the original 10-year protection period, two replacement Master Sleep Appliances are included.

The two replacement benefits may be requested at any time within the original protection period — they are not tied to a specific year.

The two replacement benefits may be used for:

• Normal wear — when normal functional wear or natural appliance aging reaches a reasonable replacement threshold.
• Accidental loss — when the appliance is lost through an unexpected event.
• Accidental damage — when the appliance is damaged through an unexpected event.
• Eligible dental and oral changes — when the patient's dental or oral condition changes in a way that affects the appliance.

Eligible product-quality or manufacturing failures are covered separately and do not use either of the two replacement benefits.

This keeps the two replacement benefits available for wear, loss, damage and dental or oral changes.

If an eligible replacement appliance is provided during the protection period, the replacement remains protected under the same original protection period.

For example, if a replacement is provided in Year 8, that replacement remains covered through the remaining years of the original 10-year term rather than beginning another ten years.

Master Sleep 10™ does not replace the treating dentist. If a patient experiences appliance wear, damage, loss, poor fit or a possible replacement need, the first step is to contact the treating dentist.

The dentist evaluates the clinical situation and, when replacement coordination is needed, communicates with Master Sleep on the patient's behalf.
