[QUOTE="AJEL, post: 103413, member: 1480"] [B]SAS welcome, I agree with much of your first post, I am comming up on 50 years soon, but must admit I do not miss plaster impressions or Vulcanize dentures (I have done my share of brown with a pink strip. And not getting that smell off my hands.) I do enjoy the really nice teeth, although Dr. French & Universal had quite nice autonomy, even though the shades were not consistent, and fractures frequent. My father (Joe Luckow) was a technician starting in 1944, I still use his thoughts on flange design, and am not big on stippling. His constant, reminder was; " [I]we can copy Gods work, but only copy. The product we do should replace, and try to not take more tongue space than necessary. We need to think how the bolus will travel and not cause interference. To remember that the removable is part of eating and speech, as well as appearance. [/I]" This year & next my last 3 DDS who custom tray border mold and use rubber base or hydrocast will retire, and to a degree I will miss working on those nicely worked casts, and full technique to produce a quality removable. [FONT=Book Antiqua]The corporate dental that have purchased their accounts have contacted me with an e-mail" if I don't match this price list they will send to the lab that does. (it is off shore I have the list with the lab name on it)[/FONT]." Now the DDS want to do 3 appointment removable, I do my best but dads words echo (back in the cerebellum) , [I]this could have been better[/I]. My father worked with Gordon on early implants (1970's spades & subframes & early Branemark 1980's, he would have I think enjoyed the possibilities that new implant's afford us today in restoration construction.[/B]AJ Luckow [/QUOTE]
