  <description>As states start to allow dental offices to open up to non-emergency patients, labs are starting to get back to work. Of course, it will be a slow start, but it is a sign of things starting to get back to the "new normal".  First up is a weekly update from Bennett Napier from the NADL (https://nadl.org/) talking about the next webinar and what's new with our industry and the COVID-19.
NADL Free Webinar - Protecting Patients and Staff when Re-Opening The Dental Practice (https://nadl.org/news/#n1369) 
Thursday, April 30, 2020                                      2:00pm-3:00pm EDT
ADA Report on 2020 and 2021 Dental Spending based on Covid 19 Impact (https://www.ada.org/~/media/ADA/Science%20and%20Research/HPI/Files/HPIbrief_0420_1.pdf?la=en%3F&amp;amp;utm_source=adaupdate&amp;amp;utm_medium=email&amp;amp;utm_content=cv-hpi-modeling-impct-of-covid-19-on-dental-spending&amp;amp;utm_campaign=covid-19&amp;amp;fbclid=IwAR3iB9XI4ZSNRIA2vEAfPFc8WQm_Iv5ZYRDBFVC6ivLcBU5oQ6jfTYTcxbk)
This week we are back to LMT Lab Day Chicago 2020.  Recording from the Argen (https://argen.com/#/) booth, Elvis got to talk to a ortho technician from Texas, Tiffany Prater CDT. She is the Vice-president of the AOLP (Association of Orthodontic Laboratory Professionals) (https://assocolp.org/) and tells her story of going from dental assistant to lab owner. Then we are joined by past podcast guest Heather Voss CDT who brings along Leon Hermanides CDT to talk about how he got into the industry and has adapted his lab to the changing market over the years. 
When dentist open up again, how many rush cases do you think we will get? What you need is a zirconia that is tested and proven to work with a faster sinter cycle.
