Sure

...silly question....why not cast your own?

 

[zero_zero]

I thought you're only doing R&D these days, CoolLuke...

 

[CoolHandLuke]

i got roped in to do me a favour, do you a favour... dont have the casting machine, and i know many hesitate to do castable abutments.

Yeah... certain abutments (straumann tissue level...) are a PAIN to cast...

Robot can't bang rocks together ?

i'm not going to spend more time developing solutions for dead implants. i mean, say nobel goes under. what new implant takes its place, or how many other implants climb in popularity? say straumann discontinues its SC stuff, we have solutions ready to meet the needs of the dying market but i've got bigger fish to fry with new companies stuff. doesnt make sense to do this (except that i need the return favour)

[CoolHandLuke]

Titan Implants has post abutments for 3.8 Steri-Oss flat top

Which Steri-Oss is it?

Darwin

 

[CoolHandLuke]

yeah those are the one piece, we need screw as a second piece because theres a bridge involved.

 

[Darwin]

Titan also has impression transfers, analogs and castable UCLA abutments for screw-retained bars or bridges.

the castable ucla is what we bought. you are now up to speed. i need someone to cast it, and i'll probably be sending them to LabGuy next week if my co-workers who are currently in chicago agree to have him do it, oftherwise, back to the drawing board.
