Mike they had a board meeting Sat afternoon and voted to do it again next year in San Francisco but this time put us on the main venue and promote it with the other events. That was last minute and obscure and not promoted really Dwight is pushing hard to build a lab day at AACD .
They decided they want to promote the lab side. I think only 4% or something like that of the techs or tech members even show up to the annual scientific meeting.
My guess is they are short on quality techs givin they have over 6,000 dentist members some of the best Drs in the country and we are the ones that make Docs look good.
LOL I think we may have even won Brad over.
We're not looking for a peice of the pie from that Dr pool already covered up with work.
GC really came through sending like 6 or 7 Of us there. Same with Ivoclar and Anaxdent
Well heck brother I wish I had known you were there, would love to meet you face to face.
Nice cases Mike!
I think New Harvest has a new product that you paint on with a brush. Comes like a bottle of die spacer so you don't get the dust everywhere like with Hi Light.
Does any one use a silver product that cleans well?
From last post. This is a powder that i brush on. HI-LIGHT made by American Dental Supply. I only use it for photos on occasion, and on restorations that are glazed. The reason is that it's messy and can contaminate ceramic if not cleaned before any firing. Even after washing hands well, you can see tiny silver dots on your fingers through a microscope. These dots won't burnout in a ceramic firing. I use windex window spray or simple green to remove. Spray and steam or also in ultrasonic in container of simple green cleaning solution. Otherwise I prefer the Bausch arti-spray ( powder spray made for checking occlusion) for checking work in bisque. It cleans easily with steam for no worrys in finishing work without contamination.
Mike- Really impressive work. I am a pankey-trained, restorative dentist and after 6 years in private practice I am returning to school to become a prosthodontist. Ive committed to lifelong learning and have become fairly adept at taking intraoral photographs, but have yet to figure out how to take excellent images of the lab work and prosthetics outside the mouth. Your images are excellent and I was wondering if youd mind running me through your setup and camera settings? I assume you are using a lightbox and/or diffuser of some sort? Any info or resources would be greatly appreciated. Feel free to PM me if you prefer. Thanks in advance, keep up the great stuff.
Really impressive Dentalmike, love the results you are getting with VM13, I use this porc, can't get it to sing like you clearly can. Have learnt a lot from dln from you guys sharing here. It would be great to get an insight into your layering techniques for this porc. I sometimes feel that it just looks a little flat. Thanks very much for sharing and keep up the great work.
