We love talking to dentist on the podcast. We also love talking to people from different countries. This week we double down on both as we chat with Dr. Ahmad Al-Hassiny who comes to us all the way from New Zealand. Dr. Ahmad grew up with dentist parents that both owned their own practices. After graduating, he ended up at his father's practice where he was introduced to digital dentistry. He attended a study club where a seller of a IOS system talked about how good it was when he knew it wasn't. That drove him to start reviewing IOS systems. The non-biased reviews grew in popularity and the Institute of Digital Dentistry (https://instituteofdigitaldentistry.com/) was born. Now iDD covers a ton of topics covering all aspects of digital dentistry with multiple instructors. We cover all things digital, the importance of still having a lab, dentistry in New Zealand, and his new podcast Digital Dentistry Decoded with iDD (https://instituteofdigitaldentistry.com/digital-dentistry-decoded-podcast/).

Today we have Shay with us again for another episode, and we chat about milling experiences and opportunities that you can take advantage of for your dental practice. Tony, Darren, and Donny also join us to talk about his experience with different types of dental mills. Sully's practice currently has three mills a wet, a wet/dry, and a prime mill. He is presently milling Zirconia in less than five minutes with his prime mill. Because he can create milled items quickly, Sully can do his patient procedures all in-house in the same visit. In addition, he can touch test the block before restoration, which is beneficial for a good fit. Tony started with the older E4D mill in 2009 and made an effort to learn how to use the mill effectively. He is using a scanner to create Invisalign products using itero. In addition to itero, they also use trios for same-day products. Dr. Don Murry is a 2010 graduate who is making waves in dentistry. He talks about his milling journey, starting with a cone beam in 2012. He is currently puck milling at his office to create full-arch products with Zirconia. Learn what new milling processes are available, how easy or hard they are to use, and how you can get your hands on a digital mill to create same-day dental appliances. Dentistry is changing. Technology, education, and resources are closer to our fingertips now more than ever! Are you ready to learn what millennial dentists are doing to exceed patient expectations, enjoy dentistry more and take vacations and how this generation can join up with the previous generation to make for an unstoppable dental team? Wait no longer! Listen in and find out how to push your lifestyle to the next level. Show Notes: [02:45] Sully's dental journey and how he became a dental professional. [06:35] Using itero for scanning to create Invisalign products. [11:21] Cone-beam and milling experience for Donny. [14:05] Types of puck mills we are using in dental practice. [17:58] Dr. Don's progression of mill purchases in his office. [19:38] When to change over the process to same-day appliances. [25:37] Dr. Darren's milling journey in his practice. [32:03] Profit margins for devices created by digital milling. [36:28] Why the industry has moved toward digital scanning. [39:15] Patients want to leave the office with their restoration complete in one sitting. As always, thanks so much for listening!

Vi har for første gang i lang tid været udenfor vores hjemmestudier at lave RumSnak – vi har nemlig været på besøg hos Danish Aerospace Company i det sydvestlige Odense. DAC laver mange forskellige slags sundheds-teknologi, men vi er især interesserede i de motions-apparater firmaet laver til brug i rummet. Astronauter har nemlig også godt af motion – ja, det er faktisk endnu mere nødvendigt for besætningen på ISS at motionere end det er for os hernede på Jorden, fordi vægtløsheden meget hurtigt gør at muskler og knogler begynder at blive svagere. DAC har netop fejret 20-års jubilæum for deres første motionscykel på Den Internationale Rumstation, og er samtidig lige på nippet til at skulle sende en sprityny model ved navn FERGO derop i august. Direktør Thomas A. E. Andersen viser rundt i firmaets ‘space lab’, hvor der udover cyklerne også er en prototype af næste generations motionsmaskine, E4D, der både kan bruges til vægtløft, tovtrækning og roning, udover cykling. Vi skal også besøge det såkaldte ‘mission control’, hvor DAC kan følge med i om astronauterne på ISS nu også overholder deres træningsplan, og følge med i de månedlige helbredstjek, som også bruger DACs udstyr. Derudover har vi som sædvanlig korte nyheder om Mars-rovere og ISS-instrumenter, og så kan vi også gøre reklame for, at RumSnak har åbnet sin helt egen web-butik – i første omgang med særlige briller til at se på solformørkelser, for sådan én kan vi nemlig se her fra Danmark den 10. juni 2021.

Introducing GuidedSMILE CHROME - DIGITAL, FULL-ARCH GUIDED RECONSTRUCTION GuidedSMILE was developed for dentists who desire a preplanned, predictable guided All-On-X style surgery. This amazing service delivers anchored bite verification, anchored bone reduction, anchored site drilling, accurate anchored provisionalization, and a method of transferring all surgical and restorative information for the final restorative conversion phase. Most cases simply require a CT scan and traditional records. Call to discuss your case. The process, the product, the surgery is straightforward! GuidedSMILE CHROME is a 4-Guide System 1 Pin guide - Utilizes teeth or tissue to deliver the Fixation Base (CR/CO SLM) Dentate Pin Guide is fully seated on the patient's existing dentition. Once verified via the two occlusal windows, the horizontal sites are drilled and anchored. Anchor pins are fully seated, verified and the guide is removed. Edentulous Pin Guide is a digital duplicate of the patient's existing denture. This tissue-supported guide is inserted, patient closes, and the anchor sites are drilled, anchored, verified, and the guide is removed. 2 Fixation Base - Use for bone reduction, anchoring the osteotomy guide and prosthetic Once teeth are removed and tissue is flapped, the Bone Reduction Guide is inserted, anchored, and bone is levelled to the meet the labial and lingual frame of the guide. This guide floats above the bone, and therefore should not be impinged by undercut. 3 Osteotomy Guide This guide is rigidly fixed with the pins, yet floats around the bone. Standard protocols are followed to drill sites and place implants. 4 PMMA Superior to conventional denture pick-up systems, this anchored GuidedSMILE nano-ceramic provisional transfers the CO/CR as determined by pre-surgical records. Implant abutment positions, anchor sites, tooth position, smile, and tissue space are all pre-set. 5 RAPID Appliance - The method of communicating GuidedSMILE to the articulator for the Final RAPID Appliance is ROE's special pick-up device, a clear duplicate of the PMMA. This allows the doctor to capture a second record to hold until final conversion. Once the patient is ready for the final, perform a pick-up impression, with tray adhesive on the tissue side, using medium PVS. Send this pick-up to ROE and we will GuidedSMILE Osteotomy Preparation Options Option 1 - GuidedSMILE-FG - All GuidedSMILE cases are utilize a Fully Guided Kit (as seen above) - ROE works with nearly all systems available today. Option 2 - GuidedSMILE-FH - Free-Hand - includes a location reference on the bone reduction frame to optimize implant location for PMMA pick-up, and a removeable reference inset to provide a maximum range for site preparation. Left image: notice the round divot references indicating implant general location. Right image: boundary insert used to ensure location of implants is within PMMA parameters. GuidedSMILE Work-Up Protocol Step 1: Complete our on-line Rx to provide ROE with complete case information: upload DICOM / Photograph (full face, full natural smile) as 'Documents' through this Rx web page: LINK web site portal Send master casts, bite registration (CO and/or CR), and/or digital impressions, study casts – print UPS label here.

If patient is edentulous, and the existing denture fits well and the tooth arrangement is accepted, convert into a scan appliance (instructions page 6). Perform a dual scan using the protocol in our manual. If edentulous patients needs to establish tooth position and vertical, begin conventional denture steps to create a scan appliance.
