    video tutorial for exoplan full arch guide

    Ok so limited success with the dual scan. I imported the scan model and the rad stent in one splittable file, then tried with limited success to align the model with the visible soft tissue by adjusting the density of the scan. Kinda worked. I have a new strategy next time with the rad stent...

    video tutorial for exoplan full arch guide

    Sorry for the late reply to you. The information you have supplied is actually really helpful. I'm pretty sure I can make 2 files and align them in the scanning software them import them into exoplan. Your note about the dual scan workflow not available in Matera yet is disappointing I was...

    Neoss fixture level intra oral scanning.

    Thanks for your help guys. Core 3d do make models for Itero, but they haven't figured out how to mill the models with the internal provision for the Neoss model replica. Some political issue about licenses or something. I have been able to send the file to Neoss and get them to make the model...

    Neoss fixture level intra oral scanning.

    I have a client who uses Itero to scan his Neoss fixtures using the Neoss scan abutments. All good! When I try to bring the scans into the 3Shape (2014) system I can design the abutment but I'm having all kinds of dramas findinding somebody who can mill or print the models for me. Any ideas...

    TRIOS® Scanner

    The main issue was when you spent too long actually doing the scan with the trigger pulled. All the time the scanner is collecting data and eventually it got to a point where it says enough and would crash. I'm sure they have it sorted now from that perspective with SSD's and heaps of RAM...

    TRIOS® Scanner

    The Trios scanner still has some bugs but it is getting there. It is still not as accurate as the Itero in my opinion. The big problem, according to my sources in Europe is that it takes so many pictures so quickly, that the file sizes are too big to handle easily. Just like the Itero there...

    Business opportunity in Australia

    I've got a whole bunch of other stuff going on with new products I'm promoting and some new training opportunities I want to follow. The business here is going well despite global financial turmoil, but I really don't have the drive to keep the pressure on and stay focused. Truth is I'm ready...

    Fluorescent zirconia

    Heraeus has a liner/bonder also that works a treat and helps improve the bond of the layering porcelain. It has no colour so if you use a liner like zirliner or any of the other ziconia liners, it won't affect the shade.

    Emax coping failure

    If you have not used any layering ceramic on or near the margins, you can actually sit the whole crown straight on a honeycomb tray with no pegs. I've been doing this since Hilal Curdad showed us the technique during a course. works fine, no sticking to tray and no warping. just be aware that...

    denture staining and characterisation

    I've been waiting for a question like this to pop up. I've been teaching courses on this very technique for years. I started out using the Dreve products but the gum "glaze doesn't work long term. It has a tendency to break down and start to peel off and discolor. Heraeus Have a range of...

    Courses for cutback and layering e.max?

    If you ever get the chance to see Hilal Kuday from Turkey, take it!!!!!! I've been teaching metal ceramics for 18 years, but the new "all ceramics", like emax, need new tricks. Hilal and of course Jurgen Seger are masters. Ivoclar regularly move them around for classes keep an eye on their...

    Fully Informed Dentists and Patients

    Works that way in South Africa, and some countries in Europe. What about choice though? If a patient is given the choice of say paying a $500 per crown fee for my crown or $170 for the Chinese cheapy, which do you think they are going to choose. Oops just realised we are going off topic here...

    Balls deep into your Mouth (little balls) NSFW

    I'd also like to know just what kind of retentive elements you used for this case. I see little balls, but how do you retain the balls to the frame. Plastic clip? therefore is this case removable?

    Fully Informed Dentists and Patients

    Wow what an interesting conversation. VTDave seems to do a lot of research into different materials and manufacturing processes. Do you ever actually talk to the manufacturers, or just research it on line? There is a great deal of assumptions made about the chemical properties of different...

    miss informing chinese

    Worst thing is other people from the west will read this crap and believe it. They won't do any checking up and start sell them to their patients. I bet the lab charge about 10 bucks a unit too.

    Balls deep into your Mouth (little balls) NSFW

    I'd love to see how this one goes. keep the thread going and show us what you end up with. My thoughts would be to cover most of them up and do an over denture with moloplast B. Then as they fail, (and they will) just uncover a couple more and reline the denture again. I thought those...
