[QUOTE="ztech, post: 348421, member: 3022"] I agree with you on this one. I have yet to see a printed denture that I would actually put my reputation behind. Looks......like shizza. Still not as strong as the acrylic teeth and base. The AG system would be the only system that I would use if I was still doing dentures. You are working with a really strong denture tooth and the base is processed in regular acrylic, so it is as strong as any denture made today. It also gives you the opportunity to modify the denture base internally in the process for the highly natural look. Problem is, it's a lot of money to save the time of setup and waxing of the denture base. Also, not enough digital labs want to incorporate a hybrid system into their digital world to make sure the AG product is supported long term. As far as the machine itself. You will have repairs that are required as with all mills. Axis motors, sensors, and maybe a spindle if you use it long enough. The minimum charge that I have incurred was $2,500. I do have the option of a local repair shop that is trained by AG to repair the equipment but they are about the same price. That was travel and repair cost. Wait time was about one week and the technician stays until it's complete and during this time my AG distributor milled my production items. Although I do primarily fixed restorations if you need more info, message me. [/QUOTE]
