Below are step-by-step instructions for activating and using the Rectifier, demonstrated by Valerio Quatrano, one of the founders of the Starecta method.

STEP 1 — HOW TO FIT THE RECTIFIER TO YOUR DENTAL ARCHES

STANDING IN FRONT OF A MIRROR, INSERT THE RECTIFIER INTO YOUR MOUTH

THE RECTIFIER MUST FIT THE SIZE OF YOUR DENTAL ARCHES EXACTLY

HERE IT HAS NOT BEEN FITTED TO SIZE

IF IT DOES NOT FIT EXACTLY, YOU MUST SHAPE IT AS NEEDED

STEP 2 — HOW TO FIT THE RECTIFIER’S BEND TO YOUR FRONT TEETH

IN THE CORRECT POSITION, THE BEND MUST BE NEAR YOUR FRONT TEETH

HERE THE BEND IS TOO FAR FROM THE FRONT TEETH

NOW IT IS IN THE CORRECT POSITION

NOW THAT THE BEND IS NEAR YOUR FRONT TEETH, YOU CAN BEND IT DOWNWARDS

THE BEND MUST TOUCH YOUR FRONT TEETH

HERE IT IS IN THE CORRECT POSITION

STEP 3 — PLACE THE RECTIFIER IN A CONTAINER OF HOT WATER

ONCE YOU HAVE FITTED THE RECTIFIER TO YOUR DENTAL ARCHES, PUT IT IN HOT WATER

THE WATER TEMPERATURE SHOULD BE ABOUT 65°

DO NOT BOIL THE WATER — THIS MAY DAMAGE THE RECTIFIER

STEP 4 — WAIT UNTIL THE WHITE PART OF THE RECTIFIER BECOMES TRANSPARENT

DO NOT KEEP THE RECTIFIER IN HOT WATER TOO LONG — AS SOON AS IT BECOMES SOFT AND TRANSPARENT, REMOVE IT IMMEDIATELY

STEP 5 — REGISTERING A NEW BITE HEIGHT WITH THE RECTIFIER

THE RECTIFIER MUST BE HOT AND SOFT ENOUGH, BUT AT A COMFORTABLE TEMPERATURE SO YOU CAN PUT IT IN YOUR MOUTH

STANDING IN FRONT OF A MIRROR, PLACE THE RECTIFIER IN YOUR MOUTH

IT MUST FIT THE SHAPE OF YOUR DENTAL ARCHES EXACTLY

STAND STRAIGHT, STRAIGHTEN YOUR SPINE AND TAKE THE CORRECT HEAD POSITION (AS IF YOUR HEAD WERE BEING PULLED UP BY THE CROWN)

MOVE YOUR JAW SLIGHTLY FORWARD AND CLOSE YOUR MOUTH

CLOSE YOUR MOUTH UNTIL YOU FIND FIRM SUPPORT. IN OTHER WORDS, CLOSE YOUR MOUTH OVER THE ENTIRE AREA.

WHEN YOU CLOSE YOUR MOUTH, A GAP MAY FORM BETWEEN THE INCISORS — THIS IS NORMAL.

LET US LOOK AGAIN FROM ANOTHER PERSPECTIVE

THE INCISORS MUST BE ON THE SAME LINE. FOR MANY PEOPLE THEY MAY NOT TOUCH EACH OTHER. THIS IS NORMAL

NOTICE THE JAW MOVED FORWARD

STEP 6 — SHAPING THE RECTIFIER’S SOFT MATERIAL TO YOUR DENTAL ARCHES

PRESS THE SOFT MATERIAL WITH YOUR FINGERS TO HELP IT TAKE THE SHAPE OF YOUR DENTAL ARCHES

STEP 7 — LET THE MATERIAL COOL

AFTER TWO MINUTES, TAKE A LITTLE COLD WATER INTO YOUR MOUTH TO COOL THE RECTIFIER

STEP 8 — TESTING WHETHER ACTIVATION IS CORRECT

LET US CHECK WHETHER THE RECTIFIER HAS BEEN ACTIVATED CORRECTLY

REMOVE THE RECTIFIER AND ASK SOMEONE TO TEST YOU

YOUR FRIEND SHOULD TRY TO FORCE YOUR ARMS DOWN

YOU MUST RESIST, BUT IT WILL BE HARDER FOR THE WEAKER ARM TO DO SO

PUT THE RECTIFIER INTO YOUR MOUTH AND REPEAT THE TEST WITH IT

NOW BOTH ARMS SHOULD OFFER THE SAME RESISTANCE

THE RECTIFIER IS ACTIVATED CORRECTLY

**********

AFTER 15 DAYS YOU WILL NEED TO REREGISTER THE RECTIFIER, REPEATING STEPS 1 TO 8

PUT THE RECTIFIER IN HOT WATER AT 65°

WHEN THE MATERIAL BECOMES SOFT ENOUGH, YOU CAN SHAPE THE RECTIFIER BACK TO ITS ORIGINAL FORM

AS YOU CAN SEE, THE RECTIFIER HAS BECOME SMOOTH AGAIN

NOW YOU MUST REPEAT STEPS 1–8 AGAIN TO ACTIVATE THE RECTIFIER FOR THE NEXT 15 DAYS

TO REACTIVATE THE RECTIFIER, REPEAT THE PROCEDURE FROM STEP 1 TO STEP 8 EVERY 15 DAYS
