    Trouble with Ivoclar Acrylic

    This was all new acrylic. I'm heading that some people think it's a bad batch of acrylic. Is that possible? I'm 20 years of ceramics experience. Limited to no removable. Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk

    Trouble with Ivoclar Acrylic

    This was Ivobase High Impact today. Capsule popped. All directions followed to a T. Denture was extremely light in color and had lots of porosity. Same happens with Hybrid. We have had this system for about 2 months. Thinking of asking for a return on the acrylic and trying Ivocap...to see...

    ingot selection

    I would use a MO1 and layer it. The darkness might get you with a value ingot.(or not?) I personally would layer an MO so could sleep well at night. 2m2 is basically A2 and 2m1 is C1/A1'ish. Don't get burned with the regular TI insicals. Make sure to use some OE3 and OE2 to keep the value up.

    Why are my LTBL3,4 ingots pink?

    If those veneers are less than 1mm thick you will have a problem. Value ingots are pretty translucent when they get thinner. A safer bet would have been BL4 LT or a MO ingot .7 shell layered. If it works let us know. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    8 unit anterior veneers

    I would press it V1 and stain it if he is paying under $250 a veneer. If he/she is paying over that I'd layer an A1LT or MO1 or MO0. For a rush like that I would add 30% to the bottom line and kindly suggest he pass that cost onto the patient. I'm curious to know why you would put yourself...

    Really? More Sironia Crap.

    Funny, and pathetic. But isn't this the MO of Sirona? Sirona clearly understands something about zirconia that no one else does to be able to sinter that fast. :rolleyes: Was just coming on here to post a funny propaganda video, and this seems as fitting place as any. The entire channel...

    Movin on!!

    Congrats Scott, I'm sure you'll be a great asset to that team. I've seen some of your work on here and while lurking on DT. I'm sure you could teach them a thing or two about custom shades and tough matches. Bunch of BL1 veneers should be a walk in the park. Have fun and pack the sun...

    Emax ceram, are you familiar with this technique?

    I wish...got a 6 unit lower ant veneer case and some custom layered ants to finish up. This was a repost of some pics I had already uploaded and posted in Restorations Du Jur a couple months ago. ;) Haven't been taking many pics lately. Too busy.... Why am I wasting my time on...

    Restorations Du Jour

    Extra separating work on zir connectors can be done in the pre sintering state. I know some people really push the limit on this...and have had some failures. I wish I had pics of a 6 unit ant bridge we just did in full zir. It was a PIA! The requested shade was C4 so first we dunk the thing in...

    Emax ceram, are you familiar with this technique?

    I this is the final result after 2 "sprinkle fires" 1st fire is to get the base to fire your stains on. 2nd you apply glaze liquid (not paste),stain as you wish, then sprinkle wet stain. I use OE1 most of the time for my sprinkling, but I have used deep dentine and dentine shades as...

    itero vs trios

    We hada Trios demo at our lab a couple months ago. Scans fast. Don't know about accuracy. I specifically asked about scan bodies. Trios does not have any yet. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    Emax ceram, are you familiar with this technique?

    This is how Oliver Brix and Gerald Ubassey do it as well. It is how I do it too. It works very good for holding internal strains. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    TrueDef IOS

    You're missing the model cost. Are you sure there isn't a yearly "service" fee for the True Def? Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
