I’m a pre-dent student and I’m so happy I found your page! I loved this video specifically because it really showed the artsy side of dentistry which is one of the factors that drew me to Dentistry! I really wanted to find a career that I loved and I think this is definitely the right choice because it incorporates one of my hobbies(art) with work!
Great explanation, curious to how many people liked it b4 the last glaze and buffed, either one is perfwcy for a person in need but kinda liked the shine
Hi Wally, Thanks for the helpful video! Beautiful work. Do you have any tips for removing un-cured resin on the fitting surface of onlays/inlays/crowns after printing?
I love this video ! Is there any chance you have the links of all the products and materials used? Thank you, you are so helpful. We love your work at our practice!
I have a Dentsply Sirona prime print, but I am seriously considering using one of these new 14K generic printers, I cannot see any print lines on them even with when I search for them with magnification. what are your thoughts on this?
12 K printers are cool. I could care less about print lines. I would go for a validated printer like Asiga, ackuretta or Sprintray over a 12k toy printer.
you stated that candy coating comes off but also stated that you use the candy coating technique in your veneers. So how long does this coating technique last? Your work is awesome. thanks.
It doesn’t come off. I said taking something from bleach to A2 using stains is unwise because it will eventually fade. Those dramatic changes are not good. I have cases out 3 years and the colors are still on.
Hi Wally. Do you have any issues with the bond being too strong while using OnX for temporaries? Especially full-arch cases and large bridges. We are unsure of which resin to use for temporaries, and have still been milling them.
@@franciscoandreapezzi536 the first step is painting the resin you printed with on top. I printed this using Sprintray ONX Tough. So that’s what I used to “ candy coat”
Hi Wally. why do you polish your crowns to make them shine? Why not just apply resin to them, immerse them in glycerin and cure them there? what is the difference?
If just coated and cured in glycerin that’s going to be moderately shiny. They won’t be a mirror like finish that is found in porcelain that you can see your reflection in. For permanent bonded restorations I like to hand polish in the anterior after the candy coat
@@wallyrennethanks. Please tell how long will the printed crowns lose their shine? I conducted tests with crowns using airflow (prophyflex 3 with phrofupearls) and it immediately made them 90% matte, which upset me. Tell me, do resins for printing have any advantages over conventional direct composites? Maybe you give any care recommendations for your patients?
@@cobrakaren usually about 1 year. Very similar to direct resin they will start to loose shine a bit but are still very acceptable. It really depends on how you are finishing them on how long the shine lasts. We typically do a 5 minute polish at the 1year recall appointment to bring them back to full luster.
