I think all valid what CHL says.
However ,
I have dental customers that don’t even manage their own email... so in fact anything to do with a computer is “ difficult” or a challenge for them. Considering most machines in dental are now computer based and/or need some computer skills then there...
Yes I agree , buying a mill just to make Dentures is a decision that needs great thought. Possibly if you already have a Mill and would like to experiment then fine, But as a production centre Milling dentures all day it would be difficult to justify a big investment. This is Moreso true if...
Hi
I think the fantasy answer is we need to work with good impressions of course the reality is we sometimes don’t get these.
There are CAD programs you can use to tidy up impressions but it would depend what the issue is with the impression that will probably determine the outcome . I often...
Manually modifying?
If you mean pouring up and scanning , yes.
But when materials and methods are treated with respect it can yield acceptable results.
And ...No I would never scan a printed model, pointless.
As technicians we have been compensating for errors in the system for years be it...
To mill or print?
Both are valid and at the moment yield different results .
Printed dentures definitely have a place, government dentures, immediates, temporary, get out of jail dentures , try ins and long term temps.
This technology will get better.
Milling can give excellent results but...
We use many 3D printers but the Asia MAX is the most versatile one we have and also gives us the best results for crown and bridge models . We use exocad model creator to make a solid model with ditched dies and seperate dies.We print them all at once. Not into hollow models , for my money a...
I would love to see some real pictures of real crowns on real Formlabs models that someone has actually done in a real lab.
Let us know how long it took you to setup and print..you know real time, all so real time of post processing.
If some one would do that..it would be wonderful...and if...
Ok to be fair..yes milling may have a shelf life and the "great promise" of 3D printing will one day print a ceramic material. How soon... well it can do it now, but the machines are expensive and the materials are limited. There is a lot of promises with 3D printing and always has been. The...
Heraeus includes something interesting you don't need line of slight, it uses a flexible screwdriver " a flexible shaft portion comprising a

PM me and i can help you. I am a reseller in Australia. I can download the latest version of the demo to your computer if you like and repair the install.
How do you think doctors will accept the rise of non-emax glass ceramics such as Suprinity, Celtra, GC LiSi et al?
Do you think the companies will do enough to help doctors accept these products and what are the real advantages for the doctor and the patient.
I have not played with the press...
If you have a ***decent*** 3D printer, use an approved material and have designed the guide correctly, you should have no issue printing a good guide.
Saying that, you have to remember impressions are very important for the success of fit, there are lots of other things to consider as well, so...
