  <description>Due to power outages and flooding from the hurricane, many of our lab friends are in need of help.  The amazing Shawn Nowak of Nowak Dental Supplies (https://www.nowakdental.com/) has started a GO FUND ME to help those in need. Please consider giving what you can to help!
https://www.gofundme.com/f/rebuilding-dental-labs-after-hurricane-helene?lang=enUS&amp;amp;utmcampaign=fpsharesheet&amp;amp;utmcontent=amp8c&amp;amp;utmmedium=customer&amp;amp;utm_source=facebook
When a dental technician reached out to the podcast and recommended a dentist as a guest, we figured they worked together. But when we found that they don't and this dentist just does amazing restorations for patient's that can't usually afford them, we knew it would be a great episode. Dr. Ben Kellum went to dental school not really knowing what he was getting into. It was there that he learned to really like implants and took an opportunity to run a residency program doing implants and full arch for drug rehab patients. It was there that he learned that doing the lab work himself allowed him to keep the cost down and pass that along to the patients. Now, him and a partner own Transcend Dental Clinic (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100087041301281) in Huntsville, Alabama doing pretty much the same thing. Thanks to the help of donations and vendors believing in what they are doing, they are able to offer complex and quality treatments to patients that usually can't afford complex and quality treatments.  
If you are in the market for purchasing a new milling machine or a furnace, Voices From the Bench invites you to connect with an Ivoclar (https://www.ivoclar.com/en_us) sales associates.  They have several great deals and financing options now available for you to take advantage of.   These robust and dependable machines were designed to make your laboratory more efficient and profitable.  They are work horses when it comes to processing IPS e.max lithium disilicate (https://www.ivoclar.com/en_us/products/metal-free-ceramics/ips-e.max-press-lab) and the amazing Prime Zirconia (https://www.ivoclar.com/en_us/products/digital-processes/prime-zirconia).  The PM7 mill  (https://www.ivoclar.com/en_us/products/digital-equipment/programill-pm7) also allows you to do digital dentures with their game changing Ivotion puck (https://www.ivoclar.com/en_us/products/digital-processes/ivotion).
