yes, yes and yes Brian. The extra cost to the doctor's is 25.00, the cost to you is 20.00 for the model. Extra 4.00 for coping and/or full-contour. To be honest, their full contour wax-ups are horrible (we do our own on their models if a Doctor wants it). However, their PFM wax copings are spot on, saves me time, so i request them, even though it's 4.00 extra. At the end of the case, we add an additional charge to the Doctor for the extra cost, which after configuring we don't pay anyone at the lab to do the model work or the wax coping, which made us charge an additional 14.00 for every iTero case we charge to the doctor and we may do away with that charge in time if the remakes keep being 0%. I will tell you some other expenses we didn't know about either was the articulators cost 100.00 each, make sure the guy who trains you gives some and don't send the articulators to the doctors by mistake (lesson learned). I believe the initial set-up cost was around 2,500 which did include a computer with the software installed. Hope this helps Brian, like I said, I was very hesitant at first, but i'm growing at ease with it over time, and love the NO remake factor involved so far. Oh, we do very lightly scrape the contacts, because they're so exact, to ensure a snug fit upon insertion in the mouth.
p.s. multiple dies, i think is an extra 2.00 charge per die....don't quote me on that though, i'll check into that for you, but i think that is the price if their is one.
