258: Love At First Tooth with Lola and Mark Welch

Elvis Dahl & Barb Warner — Mon, 06 Mar 2023 06:00:00 -0500

We are always fascinated by technicians that are married and work together. Successfully. This week we talk to Lola and Mark Welch. Both technicians from the UK who worked in the same area. After finally running into each other, Mark and Lola dated and eventually got married. Still working together, their careers grew and soon went different but similar paths. They talk about their journey in dental technology, the journey together, and what they are doing now. Mark is with Nexa3D, helping to bring a new printer to the industry and Lola is growing on Instagram, teaching courses, and now a proud member of the DTG family.

Lola's upcoming courses:

179: LIVE at LOTM Part 3: Kelly Fincher, Hannah Fincher, & Tay Harvey

Elvis Dahl & Barb Warner — Mon, 30 Aug 2021 06:00:00 -0400

We are sad that this week ends the conversations we got while at the Ladies of the Mill Summit. While a great show, we now must wait almost a whole year before it happens again! But we are going to end the whole collection with two great conversations. First up is super step-mom Kelly Fincher who married into a lab, gave up nursing, and helped raise Hannah Fincher to grow up in the industry and make it a career. It’s important to note (and say thanks) that when the pandemic hit, Kelly decided to go back to nursing and help the ones that needed it the most. We apologize to Hannah for the mess up during recording. Then we are joined once again by Tay Harvey, the fearless leader of Anaxdent USA. We talk to Tay back on episode 151, but she sits down with Elvis during the summit and they talk about almost everything from why she came to the summit to adding outside sales to her team to why a vision board isn’t for everyone. All that, more, and a bunch of laughs along the way.

Whip Mix is pleased to add VeriCast OS, a burnout pattern print resin, to Whip Mix’s growing Veri Brand Resin offering. VeriCast OS works with LCD and DLP printers in both 385 and 405 nanometer wavelengths.

It prints accurate and detailed crowns, bridges, substructures, and RPD frameworks, is durable, and leaves no ash or residue.

Since it burns out cleanly, VeriCast OS is ideal for investment casting and ceramic pressing. For optimal results, we recommend Whip Mix ResinVest, which is a phosphate investment made specifically for burning out printed or milled resin patterns.

Visit whipmix.com to learn more about VeriCast OS or any of Whip Mix’s other 3D Print Resins.

Special Guests: Hannah Fincher, Kelly Fincher, and Tay Harvey.
