Not retiring just yet :-) But want to change in the near future. I would like to learn how to digitally design dentures to send to whoever will do the next steps. Basically work from home designing digital dentures on the computer and sending that off. Whether work for myself or someone else I...

So I decide that I should buy a digital denture printer, start to study the dply system, have an open mind... I get to the end of the video and wonder how I can offer that and get away with it, I guess it would be good for a temporary or medicaid denture. I'll look at Ivoclar now and see what...

I just noticed this today, too late to sign up but looks like the NADL is making this public in a day or two, you might want to look it up and watch as well...

https://lp.dentsplysirona.com/en-us/lucitone-digital-print.html The part about "body activated material" tells me this denture isn't a long term one, and those teeth... Otherwise, I'm curious.

I'm reading the latest LMT Complete Digital Dentures: Early Adapters Tell All, and that was a quote in the article. Not sure about copyright to print that article here , however Travis if you can get a link or print it here legally, others would have a chance to read this. Ty

I was wondering, because to read the lab magazines you would think everyone makes them now. I don't plan to go digital, should I just end my career right now?

Get a call, they sounded a little upset for a denture I made 1.5 years ago, not sure if it's an immediate or not. there's a tooth popping off and they want me to readd for free. My warranty on new dentures is three months. Usually i wouldn't mind at all doing this for free, but the tone they are...

I just bought a new shipment of 199 original shade. I hasn't been that long , maybe three months or so since the last purchase. The old packaging says D-ply/Trubyte... New says D-ply/Sirona. Old says cadmium free, new doen't have that statement. Did they place cadmium back in the acrylic, I'm...

Over $12.00 to overnight (afternoon) a single lower 1x6 that i don't stock. Does it really cost that much to ship or is the major company gouging on the shipping fees a bit?

I have a 20 year old Silfradent hydraulic press that seems to be leaking black oil especially around the base of the gauge). I believe there is a hole to place new oil but does anyone know what kind, or if this is a warning sign of failure ( to include my heart when the press suddenly stops...

How do you ship wax try ins and rims during summer and keep them from melting en-route ?

Has anyone used this company to buy supplies? I'm looking for a good price on MC denture acrylic and want to make sure this is reputable. https://www.supplyclinic.com/vendors/dds-dental-supplies Thank you

What if a long time past account that hasn't sent work for three years (who was obviously using another lab),out of the blue asks for a new price list? Would you run one over as if nothing ever happened, snail mail it, email it, or do nothing ( they had used my lab for ten years prior to that)?

Yeah they have a guy here that has it and he was in contact with several others... Anyway do I use the same infection control procedures as usual to disinfect things coming in or do I need to do more? BTW I didn't see an infection control forum, if I missed it please place this there and if not...

I have a case for an immediate temp flipper to replace # 23-26. Lingual to these teeth are some sizable tuberosities that aren't going to be removed. How are you designing around these when there is no room to avoid them?

I'll start, the pics are terrible but you should get the point. I'm supposed to make an acrylic partial for the lower left side. BTW just got these in and haven't trimmed them up yet.

As usual, the comments are even better than the article but after reading this i'm wondering if a non abrasive toothpaste that is heavy on the fluoride would be good for keeping removables stain free? 50-Year-Old Fluoride Mystery Closer to Being Solved

Would someone kindly go into detail about the all on four denture, including why so much bone has to be removed. Thanks!

Hi Chris, I got the sample you sent (thanks!),anyway I'm posting here in case others may have the same question. How long do you light cure the material? Does it need air barrier coating? What is the smell the uncured material has and will it go away after curing? I have a chance to use the...

Taking this down as it isn't for sale anymore (sold back in 2012 :-),just making conversation.
