[QUOTE="Chalky, post: 292557, member: 13047"] yes the motion 2 is a wet/dry mill... all splints we use in a wet strategy. As for building ramps it is pretty straight forward, there is a few ways it can be done, either adding wax in free form mode or 'pulling' sections using one of the waxing features to create your ramp. its then just a matter of adding/smoothing and refining the design to how you want/need it to be. I commonly hear that getting the fit just right is very difficult! I frequently get call from all over the country asking me for help with these parameters. As I mentioned, there is no one size fits all - it requires understanding! you need to get a feel for what each parameter does and what it is changing in the final splint. I personally have done 1600 - 1700 splints in the last 18months, the only issues that we encounter are more to do with occlusion, not fit. Dentists need to understand that an articulator is not always a great representation of a patient - especially one with TMD, so occlusal adjustments are normal! to be honest the first month or two for me was a really fast learning curve! we went from completely 'manually' making all splints to complete 'digital' manufacture over night... we simply had to get it right! I agree with [USER=18969]@Bryce Hiller[/USER] Asiga for my money too! Ive been keen on the Asiga Max for a while, I'm waiting more for the materials to be where I want them to be. before taking the leap. [/QUOTE]
