[QUOTE="wwcanoer, post: 8586, member: 706"] So this is basically how this case progressed appointment 1: study models for diagnostic wax up appt 2:impression for lower partial framework. appt 3: try in framework, prep upper arch, impression of prepped teeth and of implants. After I got everything mounted, do a full upper arch wax up, sit the teeth on the lower partial, I then got to work on the crowns. The implants were a challenge, as they all require either 15 or 20° abutment's, but everything pulled together very nicely. We cemented the case today, and the patient had very sore smile muscles! Took a new upper impression and bite, and will be sending the partial off to be finished. One of the big advantages of being an in-house technician, is that I get to see these big cases from start to finish. But one of the disadvantages of being in-house, is that when something doesn't go smoothly, as with what started this thread, I don't have somebody immediately to bounce a question off. This is\was my first "mega-combo" case. New lower partial to correct occlusal plain , full upper arch reconstruction with implants and porcelain crowns. I think I'll kick back and relax this weekend! Thanks again to everybody Carol [/QUOTE]
