French term

Cire de propulsion

French to English Medical Medical: Dentistry MRD
Cire de propulsion : si le praticien a joint à sa commande une cire de propulsion, elle doit être prise en compte lors de la fabrication de l’orthèse - Possibilité de retouche du plan d'occlusion ou changement des biellettes

Is this a "wax advancement"? (= one suggestion I received, but it doesn't seem to fit in with the rest of the sentence) or "advancement wax"?

Thank you for your help!

thank you SJLD Thank you, SJLD, so my doubts on "advancement wax" were justified! I had found the same French reference, but no source for an English equivalent!

L'articulation retrouve cependant une certaine normalité. La cire de position thérapeutique, encore appelée cire de propulsion, peut être considérée dans ce cas

Liz is on the right track. Have a look at wax bite in therapeutic/treatment position.
