[QUOTE="HonestAbe, post: 340870, member: 25390"] It wasn't terrible, like it was obvious when I was waxing the margin in that I needed to build up the contour a little more but it just seemed like more effort than it was worth. I also tried 3d printing the crowns in a wax/resin hybrid material but the margins weren't satisfactory there either. I have another thread going about 3d printing problems and of course the printer I have isn't accurate enough to do as advertised :P Since I'm newer to the dental lab world I don't really have the anatomy knowledge to efficiently wax a crown up from scratch yet. I've had to do it a few times but I'm painfully slow. I want to learn the whole dipping and hand waxing method but I just haven't had the time yet. [/QUOTE]
