About this Episode
It's amazing how many people traveled from all over the world to go to the GC America facility in Alsip, Ill to attend the DTG Symposium back in September. We would have thought them crazy until we got to attend the symposium and meet some of them. We would fly around the world to go to that show. This week brings three conversations from 3 different countries. First up is SUPER close to the meeting. Dan Boskocevic is the Senior Marketing Manager for GC America and talks about his beginnings, the history of GC America, the early days of the DTG, and some great trends he is seeing in dental. Then we talk to a talented technician out of Latvia, Kostia Vyshamirski. Kostia talks about his journey into dental technology, going to school, and opening his own lab where he uses digital but still relies heavily on analog. And we wrap up with a father and son team that came all the way from New Zealand, David and Michael De Wet. David talks about learning the trade and relocating to buy a 2 person lab and grow it to 26. Michael talks about growing up in the lab, getting to work with dad, and using his skills and the labs equipment to make jewelry.
