[QUOTE="TheLabGuy, post: 143128, member: 126"] If you mean like UCLA, yes they have been around for ages. Right now, everything is fair game and as John eluded too, that may change in the future. Personally, I don't see it coming down the pipe from the FDA for awhile, especially since they are just figuring out that we adjust stock abutments. However, they will catch up and realize what's going on but that doesn't stop a lot of labs from milling the interfaces. Heck, look at Bonadent, they are a huge lab and went out and bought the same milling machine Atlantis uses (the Roeder I believe) and trust me, I highly doubt you buy that big of a machine to mill already interfaced Ti blanks. I'm a tiny lab, so no Ti milling for me but I do hear what's going on out there. I'm curious for you European labs (including England),does your governing body regulate milling Ti interfaces, do you have to submit paperwork, and samples like we would have to do if the FDA mandated?
