Lab Shots -

Picking up more and more accounts as time goes on we are shipping more work out of state/country. We work in-house so we are used to seeing most of our patients. Although this is great for business on a personal note we get less photos for observation. So we are starting a new post focusing on our cases from the bench - Hopefully we can get the clinical shots from our Docs to showcase them as well -

Set Screw Practice Technique.

Thanks to my teachers Mr. Okabe/Endo- for showing me this technique - Its a very useful technique for fabricating anterior custom Abutments - This allows you to practice, before dealing with the expensive components involved in implant restorations with set screws....

interesting shot.

I was teaching a hands on last Friday and took a back lit shot of my first bake and came out with some interesting layering effects - Pretty Cool -

Bi-Monthly Newsletter.

We have just started to create a bi-monthly news letter for our accounts - We have gotten such good feedback from our Dr.'s that we have made it available upon request as well. Contact us for the August/Sept issue.

A challange to nature with Implants

Bisque Try-in

A case we're wrapping up...
Just shipped for a bisque Try-in. With a couple of bakes we still have play to make any adjustments necessary after try-in to capture proper form without compromising the overall quality of our ceramic layering.
Check back soon for Final shots -

Layering Concepts for Initial

A scheme of how we layer and finish our ceramics utilizing the concepts of GC Initial.

Hand Milled....

While we updated a while back that we loved the new technology surrounding ceramic abutments, we are still using tried and true metal abutments on a daily basis. The consistency in design and fit are second to none as you have total control in the design and fabrication of your work. With the use of our Amann Girbach Af350 milling machine we get hand made machined abutments that not only look beautiful but stand the test of time with the results they yield...

Final Shots -

We posted this case a while ago, but just saw the patient today to finish up - after wearing it for a couple of weeks, and a clean radio-graph we finished the case by filling all the access holes with Matching pink Gradia. This looked really clean and after polish we couldn't even see the access holes!
