    Re-set exo model orientation

    Ive had this before but I dont remember how to correct it. iTero case, when I open design, the first step is margin line detection. When I click 'next', it gives a crash report. Its for tooth #20, but the '20' isnt near the actual prep. I know the model needs to have its orientation moved and...

    My First Time...in Pics

    I thought metal was in my past. Dr wanted a crown with some type of attachment for a partial. I was hoping I could just do FCZ, but this particular Dr seems to have some issues keeping them in the mouth, so the better bond (as the Dr sees it) would be metal, and after consulting with our Great...

    iVAC Quattro problem

    Miil started up and when the suction should have, it popped a circuit breaker. My other unit previously had a motor go bad, but it still ran with less suction. This one seems dead. I checked the power and its there up to the cord plugin. Any ideas where to go. what to do?

    Checking Sinter Oven temps

    Ive been using Orton Ceramics Temptabs, both a 650 and a 700. Fire, measure and average the two. My Mihm Vogt is showing a substantial amount of error. I just reached out to Ferro to inquire about their PTCR rings. Is anyone using any of these? Are they consistent with the Orton products?

    Katana STML shade issue

    I thought I had this figured out, so I was apparently crusing on easy street with a less critical eye. Shame on me. My A shades...1,2 especially, are looking way low value/gray. I dont know if its a change in the product or my oven being way off, but its not stuff I can work with. Anyone else...

    LiSi ingot selection

    I have a couple centrals to do, target shade B-1. No familiarity with the B range shades. Dare I press in B-2, or should I do it in B-1? Preps are nice, fairly light.

    Cement Advice Please

    What works? I had a thread on this some years ago; same Dr is having issues keeping crowns in the mouth. Yes, his preps often have too much taper. Hes used ceramir but doesnt think it works well. Patrick Coon has recommended SpeedCEM Plus. What works?

    CNC quits

    Recently Jensen changed our CNC. It just enables the user to do a couple more things rather than having to call tech support. My problem... About every 24 hours, the CNC window will go blank. Click on it and it will say CNC has stopped working. I can X out of it and restart, but the last couple...

    iTero Implant work flow

    I know nothing. What is the work flow for an implant using iTero? Does the model have soft tissue? Implant analog is in the model? Is the Dr providing info to iTero or is that lab stuff to do?

    Titan Implant. Morris taper?

    I received a case for a single crown, Titan Implant, morris taper design. Does anyone do these? How is the Dr supposed to properly orient the abutment before tapping it into place? Seems like a bad joke to me. Ill add...I asked the Dr about this. He was offended and said bring all his cases...

    Implant Placement.

    I have been restoring more and more implants lately. The placement is often substandard. Ive said it before...no need for a surgical guide. If I could just provide a model and draw a red circle where the tooth is missing we'd be ahead. I get 'esthetic' cases to restore anterior teeth with...

    iTero. Ugh

    Just had a scan show up from a new Dr. Nothing prepped. He wants 'BioTemps' for a future large lower anterior bridge. Ive never done temps from a scan. Ive actually only done temps from a model, that I prep and scan. I know thats not normal for you guys. So, what do the pros do? EDIT: Dr just...
