Tips and Tricks for your lab

[zero_zero]

you buy the cheapest red lipstick a soft brush put the brush onto the lipstick then paint the dye then put the inlay etc on the red lippy will mark the lisi resto then grind using the model trimmer that last bit is to check if you are a dentist. If that doesnt work at least you can use it to make yourself pretty for the next job you will be doing .HEHEHEHE you will make more money and you have already sold your sole anyway if you are a techo.

Good luck tryin' to remove lipstick...I prefer this thing

It is second to the Ivoclar's long discontinued control paste ...

Can you explain in detail what it is exactly like?

Yes they should .. But sometimes there are small bubbles that I cannot see in the investment material. So this causes fitting problems. I need a tip for these adjustments.

ah okay, that does happen from time to time.
microscope helps. we can see any of those post-pressing with a quick glance under the scope. make any minor tweaks if needed, and do NOT just force the crown down on the die. take your time to examine it and then youre good to go!

Hello friends.

After producing a restoration (especially a lisi press), is there a method you use for fit-checking and making fitting corrections on the model? (like occlucheck)

that stuff works, it just makes a giant mess.
if you need something like this to check fits, just rub some articulating paper on the die before gently seating. it will transfer a mark to the intaglio of a crown without making a green, red, or blue spray mess all over everything

I didn’t have bubbles when pressing when I used CreamPress from DVA. I also blocked out any undercuts before designing, or
if waxing. Everything fits great then. Never used something to fit them other than magnification. No tricks needed!

I use GC investment too. Normally it shouldn't happen, but somehow it does. Sometimes it's good to check everything.

I never thought of that but it makes sense. Thanks for the suggestion lol. It looks like a good way


The lipstick may be a bit messy btw.

Actually I was looking for a cheap way but I guess this is the best and only way..

If it really reduces bubbles to zero, it's worth having.

I examine it under a 6.5x loupe, but sometimes I think the mismatches in the margins are not visible just by looking. And you're right, I've tried to fit it without fixing it and broken a few veneers.

This is the spray form of what zero_zero suggested. The best way with a small investment.
