Usually when a dentist starts making their own restorations, they are Cerec crowns. But with all the advances in milling, printing, and now Artificial Intelligence it's becoming easier for clinics to have a in-office lab. Dr. Austin Vetter from Vetter Dental in Fargo North Dakota sees a lot of potential in employing and training an assistant to do the duties of a dental technician. Being a fan of technology and utilizing it for a streamlined workflow, Dr. Vetter comes on the podcast to talk about the equipment he uses, the software that makes it possible, the importance of the craft after the machine, and more importantly, as a clinician, where he sees dental laboratories place in a industry that is becoming more and more automated.

Whip Mix is thrilled to announce their most recent addition to their milling product line. Introducing the DWX-53DC from DGSHAPE. This powerful mill satisfies your 'NEED FOR SPEED'. Three reasons to consider this mill:

We are STILL bringing y'all amazing Texas size recordings from the DLAT conference from last April. This week doesn't disappoint as we had 3 amazing conversations with 3 amazing people. First up is Kevin Dillion, the National Sales Manager for the Lab division for Desktop Health. Kevin talks about the printers, the resins, and why they bought some labs to help labs. Then we chat with the then president of the ORG (Orthodontic Resource Group), Lance Dowdle. Lance talks about what's going on in the Ortho industry and what the ORG is doing to bring even more professionalism to the profession. We wrap up the whole conference with Samantha Grayson, who is one of those inspiring and enthusiastic removable technicians that talks about the passion and desire to get on the board to give back.
