So I take it the curing prosses takes place in the pressure pot? Years ago we used to put our rings in pressure pots after investing they we're called bubble busters.
Is your first scan with the soft tissue in place? I will get an error once in a while if I scan with the soft tissue in place on the first scan. After I remove the soft tissue and reseat the abut. I usually have to respray (touch up) this is when I tend to get an alignment issue?? They always...
Big head?? Not hardly..... I'm just confident about the dicision we made as are you about yours.... I've been in this business for over 25yrs and wasn't excited in the least about going CAD CAM but it's been the best thing we've done for our lab.
Where do you get your information from? Your milling center??? It doesn't take anywhere near a year to get things dialed in! We were up and running in a half a day and with all the support out there the learning curve is small.... I'm not saying there weren't any bumps in the road but it really...
We haven't had any requests for fabricating crowns with a scanned imp. therefore we aren't having any models printed. And no my DWX50 doesn't mill abutments........ But that's next on the list!
Call Sam at CAP and go for it..... Yeah there is a learning curve just like there is with anything but once you get you'll be glad you did it! Don't listen to the guys who aren't milling Zirconia listen to the guys that are.. We have 2 scanners and 2 mills (3 shape and DWX50s) and it's the best...
We've had this issue from time to time look at your impressions before you pour them sometimes you can see a white chaulky residue. You can't always see it before first pour but it will be evident after the first pour is pulled. All of the above also....
We cast it successfully all the time. I hold the torch about 10" from the crucible and let the ingots get glowing red then I move the torch close and wait till the ingots slump and then let it rip. It's easy to burn because it doesn't look like normal NP when you cats it so when it's ready you...
Don't be intimidated by the process it's relatively simple. We've bought a few Roland mills from CAP and did one online training session with them and we were on our way. We are learning and producing at the same time you don't need to know it all to be able to produce. Support is very important...
How am I fueling his mantra by asking him what types of restorations he recommends? Isn't that what a forum is for? I for one am not threatened in the slightest by his BS!!
