The Dental Laboratory Assistant – A three volume video set
A competent laboratory assistant can be the single most important factor in changing the operation of a practice. Dentists who have transitioned their practices the fastest are invariably the ones who are working with a laboratory assistant. These three volumes provide step-by-step instruction for developing this vital staff position.
Each video comes in either (VHS or DVD)
|
|
Lab 1 – Getting Started
This introductory program details the duties of the lab assistant and provides insights on how to effectively hire for this position. You will learn what you need to equip an in-office mini-lab and take an on-site tour of a well managed office mini-lab to see the best way to organize for effectiveness.
$139.00
 
Lab 2 – Cast Fabrication and Mounting
In an easy to follow format, our technician will demonstrate every aspect of pouring and mounting diagnostic casts. Instruction includes using the CR bite registration and facebow recording in the mounting process, verifying the mounting and making the models “presentation quality” in appearance.
$139.00
Lab 3 – Fabrication of Temporary Restorations
Indirect fabrication of provisional, temporary restoration saves chair time, is more comfortable for the patient and produces high quality temps which require little or no correction in the mouth for fit. Use of excellent provisional restorations is the key to determining precise guidelines for final laboratory contours. This segment instructs on every aspect of the process, including placing correct occlusal anatomy markings on the provisionals.

The Function of Teeth (Book & DVD)
This book and DVD companion describe and explain major findings of a 22-year active research era. For the first time, a clear understanding of how people use their teeth during chewing is related to the graphic jaw movement recordings used for designing and adjusting the condylar controls of articulators. It welcomes the renewed interest in natural tooth form of the posterior teeth pertinent to the location of the forces generated within the chewing cycle and the stability of the joints. It supports the proprioceptive and esthetic role of the anterior teeth. Over 200 illustrations including patient treatment examples.
The 2-hour DVD, which supplements material in the text, relates total jaw movement to both anterior and posterior teeth building a foundation for understanding the principles of occlusion and reasons for restoring the teeth to natural, esthetic form.
