Are “contact lens veneers” just fake news? Why is the traditional 0.7mm prep approach outdated? Are you truly preserving enamel in your veneer preparations? Should you ever bond veneers to root dentin or cementum after crown lengthening? Why is the Galip Gürel technique the gold standard for minimal prep veneers? https://youtu.be/5BEFD1XaZtE Watch PDP219 on Youtube Dr. David Bloom joins Jaz for an insightful episode, sharing his 36 years of experience in cosmetic and restorative dentistry. With over two decades in the same practice, he's seen what works—and what leads to failure—when it comes to veneers. We also cover the key steps in mock-ups, planning, and veneer preparation. Protrusive Dental Pearl: Always Wax Up for 10: When planning veneers, start with a 10-unit wax-up (even if the patient initially wants 4 or 6). This allows them to visualize their full smile with a mock-up, compare different options, and make an informed decision. It's not about upselling - most patients will appreciate the fuller look. Key Take-aways: Health and diagnosis are foundational in cosmetic dentistry. Visual try-ins are crucial for patient engagement and satisfaction. Minimally invasive techniques are preferred for cosmetic procedures. Communication with patients about their options is essential. Bonding to enamel is more reliable than bonding to dentin. Permission statements help in guiding patient expectations. The transition from veneers to crowns should be carefully considered. Staining is not the primary concern when bonding to dentin. A change in surface texture is key in modern dental preparations. Visual aids are crucial in helping patients understand their treatment options. The Gurel technique emphasizes minimal preparation for veneers. Effective communication with patients can enhance their treatment experience. Understanding occlusion is fundamental in aesthetic dentistry. Veneer thickness should be as minimal as possible for aesthetic results. Patient involvement in the design process is essential. Cementation techniques can vary based on gingival health. Maintaining a facial path of insertion is important for aesthetic outcomes. Building a good relationship with lab technicians is key to successful restorations. Need to Read it? Check out the Full Episode Transcript below!

Quick Summary: Dr. Brett Beckman discusses the causes, treatment, and management of enamel hypoplasia and other dental defects in young animals, focusing on hypocalcification, trauma, and systemic diseases like distemper. He shares key insights into treatment options, extraction methods, and preventive care to maintain optimal oral health in young patients. Guest, Cast, and Crew Information: Host: Brett Beckman, Board Certified Veterinary Dentist Guest: None Sponsored by: Veterinary Dental Practitioner Program Main Talking Points: Causes of enamel hypoplasia and the role of systemic diseases. Identifying brittle and compromised teeth in young patients. When extractions are necessary and special considerations for brittle teeth. The importance of radiographic monitoring and pulp cavity analysis. Managing patient sensitivity and appropriate home care options. Interesting Quotes: "Teeth compromised by enamel hypoplasia are more brittle due to the lack of proper calcification, making them prone to fracture." "In young animals, even a brief fever can disrupt the formation of enamel, leading to hypoplasia." Timestamps: [00:00] – Introduction and overview. [01:20] – Heather's question: How brittle are hypoplastic teeth? [03:30] – Extraction concerns for hypoplastic teeth. [05:45] – Radiographic monitoring and bone loss. [09:20] – Nutritional deficiencies and enamel formation. [11:10] – Managing systemic diseases like distemper and their effect on enamel. (Veterinary dentistry, enamel hypoplasia, brittle teeth in young animals, tooth extractions, dental defects, systemic diseases in animals, canine distemper, enamel formation, dental care for puppies and kittens) Key Points Summary: Enamel hypoplasia makes teeth brittle and prone to fractures, especially in young patients. Systemic diseases like distemper and fevers can cause enamel defects if they occur during enamel formation. Monitoring dental health through regular radiographs helps catch defects early. Special tools and techniques are required for successful extractions and restorations in hypoplastic teeth. Affiliate & Sponsor Links: Sponsored by: IVDI Link: https://ivdi.org/inv
What is the best material for enamel replacement? It depends! When selecting the material of an onlay or overlay, understanding how a natural tooth functions during occlusion is essential if your goal is biomimetic dentistry. Harder is not better, but rather mimicking a natural tooth's bond to itself and its modulus of elasticity will aid in selecting your enamel replacement material.In this episode, Dr. David Alleman reviews ceramic, composite and gold and outlines best practices for completing the final steps of a biomimetic restoration.Articles referenced in this episode:Wendt, S.

In Episode 36 of "The Word is Leadership", helped by our random word ‘enamel', I ponder the question ‘do I possess the qualities necessary to be attractive without compromising my identity?' which prompts reflections on the intricate artistry of leadership. We explore the profound parallels between enamel's protective surface and the essence of effective leadership. Just as enamel shields what lies beneath, leaders must strike a delicate balance between authenticity and the need to appeal to others. I introduce the two crucial principles of leadership attraction: understanding your tribe and donning your game face. I discuss how attraction alone isn't sufficient – leadership demands resilience and strength - like enamel, leaders must remain steadfast and unwavering in their beliefs. I explain why consistency and conviction are paramount for fostering trust and respect among followers. Join me on what I hope is a thought-provoking foray into resilience and leadership.
Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend! I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks… Morgan: Hi Dr Cabral! I'm wondering if there's anything we can do to strengthen or improve teeth enamel. I've noticed in the last few years that my teeth seem to be less thick/ more opaque. Is this a mineral issue? Thank you! Marianne: Hello doctor Cabral, I'm tracking my cycle with an Oura ring and I experience a significant decrease in heart rate variability (HRV) accompanied by a notable rise in heart rate during my luteal phase. Is this a normal pattern? And if not, could you maybe let me know what could cause this? I'm a 46 year old female, very active, with a healthy weight and normal periods (27-30 days). Thanks so much for your answer. Best, Marianne Lara: Hi, dr. C! Hope you, your family & Bacci are well.. I've listened to you explain what's in Metavolve and how it works, so my question is, would you recommend it also for people with estrogen dominance, high stress levels, unregulated sleep & poor metabolism (also fibromyalgia) but their main goal is not weight loss? Thank you, you're the best! Happy healing, everyone! Maria: What does the research say about erythritol? Is it good or bad for you? Rita: Dear Dr. Cabral Thank you so much for doing what you do with such passion and commitment!I've been struggling with pain for 3 years, and up till now, I thought I had a tooth problem, but after not finding anything after dental x rays, examinations, I had an MRT scan ( magnetic resonance tomography ) in May. In the last3years, at irregular intervals, sometime twice a month, sometimes only once in every3months, I had massive pain on the left side in my upper jaw area,in the gums+in 1 tooth+severe headache-only once it happened on the right side but the same pain:upper jaw, gums,1tooth,severe headache. MRT scan showed my right side maxillary sinus is full of phlegm/mucus? I would love to get some advice on how to remove the phlegm / mucus from there?Thank you so much in advance, best wishes, Thank you for tuning into this weekend's Cabral HouseCalls and be sure to check back tomorrow for our Mindset & Motivation Monday show to get your week started off right! - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3131 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

The top of the 9 by 13-inch print starts boldly with the state name NEBRASKA and underneath it is spelled also in braille. Underneath the word NEBRASKA is the entire state outline of Nebraska exactly like a map. The only difference from a map is on the left side of the state there's a white cane instead of a straight line and on the northwestern border there is another white cane instead of a line. At the end of the strap of the white cane, the map continues along the river as it naturally would. The river continues all the way down to the southeast border of the state. In the middle of the west side of the state are the historic rolling sand hills, which are covered by prairie grasses. These sand hills are replicated by small wavy tactile hills as a nod to this critical and historic portion of the state, which supports the cattle industry. Starting in the middle to the right side of the print are three huge stalks of corn. There's a reason this is proudly called the Cornhusker state! 192 Berkey Creamery Bundle Package donated by Pennsylvania Council of The Blind One thing that most Pennsylvanians agree on is “Ice cream is good, and the Penn State Creamery makes some of the best.” We love ice cream, but we love the science behind it even more.

In 2000, Graem Milicich and Tim Rainey published an article outlining how traditionally treated teeth were at greater risk to infections from cracks due to the increased stresses on the tooth. This includes peripheral rim fractures, which occur when restored teeth are not connected side to side like with amalgam or poorly bonded composite. These small cracks around the edge of the restoration lead to occlusal effect caries and increased risk of larger cracks in the tooth.When Dr. Alleman began learning more about structural compromise, he purchased a microscope for his office and was then able to visualize cracks in dentin. He saw how these cracks were symptomatic, but the dental school recommendation of a full-coverage crown wasn't enough to stabilize them. Dr. Alleman began removing the cracks and seeing symptoms resolve. This was confirmed by a paper he discovered later by Abbott and Leow, two Australian endodontists who studied symptoms after crack removal and found superior results to previous recommendations of full coverage crowns or attempting to bond over the cracks. When the cracks were removed the symptoms went away.Articles referenced in this episode:Milicich G, Rainey J T.

MAKING USA ENAMEL, 17min,. USA Directed by Regan Vasquez The documentary “Making USA Enamel” takes viewers on a three-year journey to bring colorful enameling to US soil—in the middle of a global pandemic, too. Meet the people of Lodge Cast Iron who helped create USA Enamel™ in this documentary by Regan Vasquez, featuring interviews with leadership and employees from across Lodge, as well as footage from Lodge foundries and the enameling facility. http://lodgecastiron.com/ https://facebook.com/lodgecastiron https://twitter.com/lodgecastiron https://instagram.com/lodgecastiron Get to know the filmmaker: In January of 2020, I had been working for Lodge Cast Iron a little over a year and was approached about this documentary. The film explores this, but essentially, USA Enamel was something our company had wanted to do for so many years and I was so excited to be given the opportunity to share that story with our audience. This isn't a space that many people know too much about so the chance to highlight the people behind this product was very cool. I had no idea we'd be living and working through a global pandemic soon after—plus, so many other obstacles would come our way during the process—but as a team we kept persevering and finally ended up where we are today with a product line we're so proud of and a documentary, too! I'm really grateful I was able to give such visibility into how something that we use in our home every single day was made. You can sign up for the 7 day free trial at www.wildsound.ca (available on your streaming services and APPS). There is a DAILY film festival to watch, plus a selection of award winning films on the platform. Then it's only $3.99 per month.

Tooth enamel is the strongest substance produced by the human body, protecting the sensitive lower layers of the teeth. But once it wears away, we can’t regrow it. The cells that create enamel, called ameloblasts, die shortly after the teeth are formed. New research from the University of Washington could eventually change that, however. Researchers have succeeded in transforming stem cells into ameloblasts, which can produce a rudimentary enamel under the right conditions. Hannele Ruohola-Baker is a professor of biochemistry and associate director of the Institute for Stem Cell & Regenerative Medicine at the University of Washington. She joins us with more details on what the ability to regrow enamel could mean for dental patients.

Costco is often heralded as the home of many a great deal, but consumers are wondering if their latest offering is worth it. Costco's Le Creuset deal has sparked numerous headlines recently and we're here to examine whether or not it's worth the money and the toll it's sure to take on your storage situation! If you prefer video, watch the full episode 22 YouTube video version. Costco recently added a $4,499 157-piece Le Creuset "Ultimate Cookware" set to their website and the internet has reacted accordingly! This set includes a multitude of Le Creuset's stoneware items (all in red), stainless steel pots, plates, French press, utensils, and much more.

In this episode we contemplate the amount of space these items require to store, their overall weight and practicality, the fact that color is limited to red, and more, to determine whether we feel this is a good deal or not. Note: we did not receive any compensation from Costco and the opinions expressed in this podcast are solely our own. What's included in Costco's Le Creuset Ultimate Cookware Set?

Emily Joyce creates nostalgic and sentimental works of wearable art and sculpture about her love of all things related to the school experience. Her pieces are unique, one of a kind, and all made by Emily in her home studio. Many sources of inspiration are from visiting playgrounds, reminiscing about teaching and learning, and found tools and documents at Antique stores. She gets warm and fuzzy over "kid writing." She collects tools, and school supplies. Emily realizes that her work is different from the ordinary. She wants her work to speak to people on a personal level, and evoke a feeling or a memory. Many of the themes revolve around the subject of school. She realizes school may bring people feelings of joy or pain, or anxiety, and she is here for it. Emily struggled in school herself, and thinks about school a lot as her kids are all of elementary school age. The materials Emily uses to create are metal and enamel. Enamel has a rich history that dates back to the early 9th century. Many times, she recommends people check out the reliquaries from the Byzantine Era at their own Art Museum to see some pieces that inspired her to learn the art. Enamel is powdered glass fused to metal. It is finicky and fragile, and comes in a variety of colors and techniques. Although she knows many processes in enamel, Emily is always drawn to champlevé, drawing and exploring unique ways to apply enamel. You can follow along with Emily on her Website and Instagram.
