But then again, I was reading about which fast food restaurants have the best chicken strips while looking at this thread. Anybody want to guess who was #1?
The way we use the internet is changing us. At what point does multitasking become acquired ADD.

Colonel Sanders or Chick fillet?

Let the little guy figure out how to make an A3 into a C4. Megalab just ordered 10tons of A2 disks.
Same thing happens in denture teeth. Many suppliers do not cover all 16 Vita shades.

That's for the Psychology Dept. to determine. Maybe ADD should have been labeled Multitasking a long time ago. Is there medication for that?

FWIW...Im not impressed with the Lava. You can get decent color mods with B&B Origin liquids with one conservative brush application. Still, I have others I like better.

I suppose what also is on the mind of manufactures is the loss of about 1/2 the smaller to 1 man labs
and the bigger lab mergers of who now are their main target labs$$, the bigger and mega labs?

Years ago we had one doc who ordered everything as a B-62 shade. I guess 3M is starting off with the most popular shades that are prescribed. I don't know if anybody has ever done a study on this but I think most of the crowns are probably in the A range. Doing it this way gives them a larger sampling in the marketplace I guess.

I used to have a Dr years ago that would call and say, 'this is B-62. Ive got a pick up for ya'.

It was either Vita or when Shofu came out with the Shade Eye, that did that study, I think.
It was like a sphere of color with differing value and chroma zones, and found that
the majority fell into the A range.

Don't want to destroy big corporations, but everyone strive to be always better than
'corporatized' dentistry to preserve what is good in the long haul.
As always, race to the top instead of the bottom.
And nothing against incorporating technology, but not to use it to dumb down what
should be a professional duty to do what's good for the patient.

The bigger and mega labs will contract to produce their own and cut out the middle men, if they haven't already. Then the mega-corps like $traumann and $irona cut out the mega labs and will have I/O scans sent from doc to auto-design software to corporate mill to UPS to be placed in patient mouth w/o any human ever touching the crown except the patient. Most will be content with the mono shades and low, low prices (to the doc, not patient).
