anyone who has a VeriEko Printer, Do you have any software issues? I tried to open the Alpha3d software and get a "Can not connect to the server" message. Is the old version of this software discontinued? Whip Mix does not allow any updates of the software, so my printer jst became a paper...

Hi, I have the second case now that ended up with an open contact on the mesial in the mouth but was perfect on the model. It seems like there is a misalignment in the analog position. I have no idea if this is a scan issue or print issue. I am so impressed with the fit of the analog in the...

I am tryng to scan a solid model with multi die scan and a pontic in scan app. All of the sudden the app asks me to scan the die for the pontic which I obviously cant tdo. Never had this issue. One case I managed because it was a segmented model, but the other is an implant abutment with a...

Hi, I am a big fan of the Komet yellow stones, but they changed the shaft and once the cylinder is tapered to a nice fine tip, that tip breaks off due to a mushroom shaped head on the top of the metal shaft. I am not any longer be able wear the stone down to a tiny bit. I lose it always at a...

This thing is driving me nuts. I currently deal with my second printer. The first one had a wobbly z axis screw rod. The second one prints garbage. The prints look like they cured with a flame thrower. All vertical surfaces are high gloss with absolutely no texture or detail all looks slumped...

Looking into the Ackuretta SOL printer. Does someone has one and can give me some info on this. I would like to know your opinion. Also does the printer counts usage and reminds you when it is time to change the VAT or the LCD screen?

I did a bunch of test firings and found out that I can only successfully fire porcelain in the outer 1/2 inch of the round tray and i have to make sure the facial ( layered part) is facing outward. everything else that is placed more toward the middle of the furnace turns out completely opaque...

Lava scanner from Jensen. With or without Preciso Exocad software. Due to it's size and the outrageous shipping cost, I prefer local pick up. We are located in Kirkland, Washington State. Scanner works fine, no issues. Price for scanner alone $2500,00 call for pricing if you are interested in...

I got a somewhat disturbing call from Jensen today. They told me that exocad now charges every year a dongle fee and if you don’t pay, it will stop working. Same as 3 shape. I was also offered to go with Chris Brown for tech support instead of Jensen and they offered me an open source exocad...

John Kois is teaching a cement gap of 90 to 120 microns. That seems way too much to me. What is your take on proper cement gap for crowns and especially for veneers?

Hi, What is the best and most accurate investment for gold inlays?

I did a full mouth case in emax. Patient loves it ,but now comes back after a week and thinks the 2 centrals are a bit too translucent at the incisal edge. I joked and said I can send a PMMA stain kit and the doc can light cure a bit of white on it. but pointed out that it won't last longer than...

Is there anyone in the Puget Sound area who can mill me a 27 unit PMMA case asap on a 5 AXIS MILLING MACHINE? I have an urgent case and found out that the bridge does not fit in my puck due to the path of insertion and me having only a 4 axis milling machine. I have no time for mailing, so I...

My Doctor wants me to porcelainize an abutment. She heard about it in a lecture. Anyone has an idea what this would be and how to do it?

Hi all, do you charge your doctor for printed models? I think they are about twice as expensive that doing stone models. I don't charge my doc's for model work, mainly because I have to charge sales tax on them and i do not want to keep track and submit the tax to the DOR. Another step of work...

I am having fit issues with models printed by Intech. The Zirconia crowns are away too tight. I heard others have that issue too. How about you?? What is the cement gap you use for these models? I am trying to find a formula that eliminates me grinding the crap out of the vertical walls. I have...

I am having fit issues with printed models. We are used to re-wax all the margins of our milled wax crowns, but now since we are doing printed models from a carestream scanner, we get crowns back with open margins. I assume that by waxing the margins to the printed die, we are creating "hold...

HI, I need some help to find a company ( or companies) in the US who can design ( model build) a digital model for a Astra EV 4,8 implant. Atlantis told me that the analog comes for ELOS, so the model has to fit with that. Also I need someone who can print the model for me.Any idea?

Hi all, I need info on model printing. I currently getting models from Intech for the true def scans, but now I also get caresteam scans. My first try was Argen and that turned out to be bad. 1. The occlusal clearance on the prep was way off. I had no space and when I steam cleaned all the...

Hi all, I am just curious if you have issues with the software on Jensen Preciso. I am on the phone with tech support almost twice a week, because I find EVERY fricking flaw in the system. I am so tired of it and have the feeling that I am the only one with issues. Since I have the newest...
