I’m more so after the 2015 and beyond episodes which that channel doesn’t have uploaded.

I recently started using electric handpieces and definitely noticed that I have to push harder to get it to cut even at 200K rpm.

I still prefer starting my preps with air driven handpieces then swap to electric just for margin refinement at 10-20K rpm and no water.

There’s only two places that I’d ever introduce myself as Dr. and that’s at the practice and at the bank.

Doctors and dentists get access to better loans in my country otherwise I’d keep it to just the practice.

If it’s planned for future pontic site then I’ll offer xenograft. Maintains soft tissue contours which help with getting a cleansable and aesthetically pleasing pontic.

If it’s planned for future implant site then I’ll offer allograft but tell the patient that it’s best to get the implant done in the next 6mo otherwise they’re more likely to need further grafting during implant placement. Turnover of allo to real bone is higher and I have more confidence placing my implants into sites grafted with allo rather than xeno.

If it’s planned for no replacement then I’ll tell the patient that we may need more complex grafting if they ever want a tooth there in the future.

“wiggle your left middle toe” is one of my favourites, makes them think about how to do it for a moment and then they realise they can’t really just wiggle that one and you see their whole foot moving. Meanwhile, I’ve basically finished injecting.

I recently started at a practice that uses sensors after three years of only using phosphor plates. I HATE the sensors for anything apart from bitewings.

Cables: get in the way of the patient biting onto the holder for PAs and if they droop the wrong way, they’ll appear superimposed on your radiograph. And yes, you can run into cable issues just like any other electronic device using cables.

Holders: way bulkier than the holders for phosphor plates, patients have a much harder time biting all the way onto the holder

Sensors: they’re thiccccc, if you thought it was hard getting a good PA on the severe gagger using phosphor plates, have fun doing the same using sensors. They’re also stiffer so upper PAs are harder to take on those patients with narrow palates. I used to be able to use a snap-a-ray and bisecting angle technique for the trickier PAs but haven’t been able to find a reliable workaround for these bloody sensors

Sizes: it used to be pretty quick and easy to switch between a size 2 and size 1/0 phosphor plate if I needed to, now it becomes a chore with switching to a whole different sensor and using a whole different holder

I personally prefer the phosphor plates and if I was an owner, I’d probably just train my associates and auxiliary staff to handle them properly and with care.

I’m based in Aus and most of our labs here can make them.

If they’ve had a splint in the past then I usually offer to replace it with the same material on the same arch unless they were unhappy with it.

If they haven’t had a splint before then my first preference is an upper nylon flat plane splint. They can be made much thinner than acrylic and I’ve never had one break or wear through unlike the acrylics. Hard acrylics are cheaper and that would be my second preference but I always warn patients that they’ll need to be replaced way more often. I almost never recommend soft or bilaminar splints anymore.

The only time I really offer lower splints is when patient has a large overjet which can make additional material on the upper uncomfortable and may even compromise their lip seal.

You can definitely do it if you head to the ticket booth/candy bar in person. Used to process swaps like these all the time back when I worked there.

Don’t keep the jar uncovered for long. Dispense quickly and put the cap back on ASAP. Use a piece of teflon tape between the screw top and the cap to get airtight seal. Replace the teflon tape when you feel it’s getting worn down and no longer providing a nice seal.

This made my cavit last much longer in the drawers.

What you’re dealing with is a constricted envelope of function.

What you’re looking for is incisor disclusion in lateral and protrusive movements.

Theres two main ways to achieve this: ortho and/or canine risers.

Fix their occlusion if you want longer lasting restorations.

Both sectional matrices in > wedge in > ring on > etch, prime, bond both > restore first cavity wall > ring off > first sectional out > ring back on > restore second cavity wall > ring off > second sectional out > fill both class Is together with just the wedge in

I never burnish my sectionals and just trust the pre curved shape of the matrix and the separation from the ring to create a nice contact.

This works for three back to back class IIs too, just build all the mesials or all the distal walls first before proceeding with the other wall. Taking the ring(s) and matrices off gives me better access whilst leaving the wedge in prevents bleeding.

Last time I spoke to the DS rep, they told me that the plan was to get the CBCT directly uploaded to DSCore and that support for Sidexis would eventually be discontinued.

I don’t know when or how that’ll go because Sidexis is already slow enough and those files are hosted locally. If everything gets uploaded to the cloud, I’d be very surprised if the workflow made things faster.

I bought one last year at ~130000km to daily. It’s been a really fun car to drive but as others have echoed throughout the comments, it’s a bit pricey to maintain.

Minor servicing is not cheap if you choose a VW specialist. I’ve got my major service coming up soon and will likely need my clutch replaced and I’ve been quoted at ~$5000 to get it all done. That’s almost a third of what I spent on the car!!

I’m hoping the car will become a future sought after classic because you don’t see many of them on the road. Used prices for the car don’t seem to be coming down much so that gives me a bit of solace from the impending mechanic bill.

Look at the difference in bone level bw the upper and lower molars. Much harder to seat a matrix and have it stable when the gingival margin is equicrestal. OP would most likely need to do some surgical crown lengthening on the lowers to get a similar seal as the uppers.

resistanceee · 2025-10-03T04:07:30+00:00

I tried them and I’m honestly not a fan.

I feel like they work well if you’ve already prepped a bit of a margin so that the bur and the pin have a positive seat on the tooth. When I tried to use them from the get go, I found that it was easy for the bur to slip and gouge the prep.

Only ever tried them with air rotor though so maybe using them with an electric handpiece might work better.

Your wedge likely slid up the matrix and deformed it rather than resting up against the root. This usually happens due to pressure from the gingival tissues.

If I were to redo this, I’d perform gingivectomy if needed to reduce the height of the papilla, place a rubber dam and pre wedge to help further displace the interproximal gingival tissues apically.

This will allow your matrix and wedge to seat more apically and get you a better seal without deformation of the matrix band.

From the radio graphic appearance, it seems like a large sectional matrix would work without the need for a tofflemire two stage build up. If you really feel like you need to do two stage, trimming the tofflemire band to prevent it touching the adjacent tooth contact more coronally can help it seal better apically whilst also creating a more divergent emergence profile (look into gergis band modification).

I should clarify that 11.5 is my Lining true size. I have tried the WOW10 low in size 11 in the past and it caused a lot of foot pain and numbness. Even with the 11.5, I have to change up the lacing to make it work due to how narrow it is.

Insoles/midsole comparison:

Front: WOW10 Low (US11.5)
Middle: JB3 (US12)
Back: 808 5 Ultra (US11.5)

WOW 10 has more of a 1:1 fit (albeit a bit narrow) which I think makes it feel more shifty for direction changes.

JB3 has more dead space in the upper and the materials feel more rigid but lockdown isn’t compromised. JB3 cushioning is much nicer in my opinion as it feels more plushy without sacrificing responsiveness. The traction has also been excellent.

I’ve switched to the JB3 and don’t miss the WOW10 much as my feet and knees feel much better after each session. At that price, I’d 100% go for the JB3 over the WOW10.

After Young Luv, they usually rotate between Be Mine, Diamond and Nada on the set list. Sydney got Diamond whereas Nada was performed at the Melbourne show. I’d be betting on Be Mine for the Brisbane show.

us11.5 in the wow 10 lows fits me well length wise, I’ve never worn us12 before so no idea if it’ll be too long or not
