  <description>&lt;p&gt;We are all back from Lab Day and very tired.... but yet we are still all going to the bench because the work never stops.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;THANK YOU Ivoclar, for hosting us over the weekend!&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This week we get to meet John Rano. John's dad was a dental technician, so it only made sense that John would end up in the family business. At the age of 14, John started learning what he could. By 18, he was doing conversions. But John wanted more. So after working at another lab and learning even more, John opened &lt;a href="https://www.uniquesolutionsdentallab.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Unique Solutions Dental Lab&lt;/a&gt;. John comes on to talk about his journey, what he learned about providing a positive environment for new employees, and using digital for his full arch workflow. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Did you know that not all Zirconia is the same?&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;
&lt;a href="https://www.ivoclar.com/en_li/products/digital-processes/ips-e.max-zircad-prime-family" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;ZirCAD Prime&lt;/a&gt; Zirconia from &lt;a href="https://www.ivoclar.com/en_us" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Ivoclar&lt;/a&gt; is uniquely produced with Gradient Technology which allows two powders that normally sinter at different intervals,  to be combined into one material which sinters uniformly.  The manufacturing process not only optimizes the translucent properties but also creates a seamless progression of shade while maintaining optimal strength.&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;ZirCAD prime is now more affordable than ever and will give you results that your Dentists will notice!  Contact your local Ivoclar Sales representative today to find out more about Prime and how Ivoclar can support your success!

  <description>&lt;p&gt;When you think of world-famous Denturist, who comes to mind? Because of the lack of legal states in America, the list is short. But there is one gentleman out of Windsor, Canada who has been promoting the profession for years online. Eric Kukucka, from the &lt;a href="https://thedenturecenter.ca/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Denture Center&lt;/a&gt;, comes on the podcast to talk about finding out that he wanted to be a denturist at a young age, getting in to school, partnering with &lt;a href="https://www.ivoclarvivadent.com/en_US" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Ivoclar&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="https://www.3shape.com/en-us" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;3shape&lt;/a&gt;, opening a few practices, and helping develop the complete digital workflow when it comes to removables. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;
&lt;a href="https://www.whipmix.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Whip Mix&lt;/a&gt;’s new &lt;a href="https://www.whipmix.com/products/veriwash/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Veriwash&lt;/a&gt; resin cleaning station is the ideal piece of equipment to use in the 3D printed resin post process. It’s oscillating, multi-speed stirrer produces a tornado-like vortex every 30-seconds, and  guarantees efficient, effective and powerful cleaning whether the units are individual or still attached to the build plate.&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;The two alcohol baths make an effective step-wash system. It cleans more efficiently and there is less alcohol needed, since  it is re-used for both a fresh bath and a dirty bath.&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;The VeriWash’s intelligent design offers features such as Mode, Time, and Start/Stop button display which gives the operator full and automatic control of the cleaning process. A mesh basket used in the wash container makes it easy to keep track of small printed parts when cleaning. The affordable unit’s one-year warranty ensures peace-of-mind for the owner.&lt;/h3&gt;

  <itunes:subtitle>Do you want to know how Exocad came to America? John Orfanidis comes on the podcast to tell the story of growing up in a VERY dental family, opening a lab, being the first lab to have Exocad, and then taking it to the rest of the USA. John is and was a teacher, trainer, advocate, and Exocad evangelist. </itunes:subtitle>

  <description>&lt;p&gt;We take for granted the dental design softwares that are here. Sure is nice that someone took the time to make and teach us all how to use them. On this week's episode we talk to one of the technicians responsible for bringing&lt;a href="https://exocad.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt; Exocad&lt;/a&gt; to North America. John Orfanidis has only known the dental laboratory industry. His past lab was the first lab to get the German made software, Exocad. John learned everything he could about the software and then took it across the country teaching and training other labs to use it. John talks about the early days of Exocad, some amazing things you can do with the software, and what is next for Exocad and John.  &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Using 3D printed Dentca Temporary Resin is the easy, fast, clean and accurate way of creating natural-looking temporary restorations using &lt;a href="https://whipmix.com/products/dentca-temporary-crown-bridge-resin/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Dentca Temporary C&amp;amp;B 3D Print Resin&lt;/a&gt; from &lt;a href="https://whipmix.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Whip Mix&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;The new temporary material is FDA cleared, biocompatible, photocurable, and can be printed fast. That patient can be temporized with the highest quality temporary crowns that last a minimum of one full year in the mouth. Dentca C&amp;amp;B Temporary features excellent life-like esthetics and shade-matching capability with Vita shades A1, A2, A3, A3.5, B1, B2, and BL (Bleach).&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Dentca Temporary C&amp;amp;B resin is validated for use with the &lt;a href="https://whipmix.com/products/asiga-max/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Asiga Max&lt;/a&gt;, Asiga Pro 2, &lt;a href="https://whipmix.com/products/asiga-pro-4k/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Asiga Pro 4K&lt;/a&gt;, and the Whip Mix &lt;a href="https://whipmix.com/products/veribuild-lcd/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Veribuild printers&lt;/a&gt;, and with the following curing units: Uvitron (&lt;a href="https://whipmix.com/products/uvitron-uv-sunray-400-curing-unit/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;SunRay 400&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="https://whipmix.com/products/uvitron-uv-curing-unit/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;IntelliRay 600&lt;/a&gt;), and the &lt;a href="https://whipmix.com/products/curebox-plus/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;CUREbox Plus&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/h3&gt;

  <description>&lt;p&gt;Every lab relies heavily on design software these days. The two biggest in our industry are &lt;a href="https://www.3shape.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;3Shape&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="https://exocad.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;ExoCad&lt;/a&gt;. But what are the differences? Is one better than the other? This conversation starts the conversation of 3Shape vs ExoCad. Three technicians that use their software every day come on to discuss the differences and the similarities. Not sales people. Not the company. Real technicians that understand the daily struggles lab face every day.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;a href="https://www.whipmix.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Whip Mix&lt;/a&gt;’s new &lt;a href="https://www.whipmix.com/products/veriwash/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener"&gt;Veriwash&lt;/a&gt; resin cleaning station is the ideal piece of equipment to use in the 3D printed resin post process. It’s oscillating, multi-speed stirrer produces a tornado-like vortex every 30-seconds, and  guarantees efficient, effective and powerful cleaning whether the units are individual or still attached to the build plate.&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;The two alcohol baths make an effective step-wash system. It cleans more efficiently and there is less alcohol needed, since  it is re-used for both a fresh bath and a dirty bath.&lt;/h3&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;The VeriWash’s intelligent design offers features such as Mode, Time, and Start/Stop button display which gives the operator full and automatic control of the cleaning process. A mesh basket used in the wash container makes it easy to keep track of small printed parts when cleaning. The affordable unit’s one-year warranty ensures peace-of-mind for the owner.&lt;/h3&gt;

    <![CDATA[<p>Every lab relies heavily on design software these days. The two biggest in our industry are <a href="https://www.3shape.com/" rel="nofollow">3Shape</a> and <a href="https://exocad.com/" rel="nofollow">ExoCad</a>. But what are the differences? Is one better than the other? This conversation starts the conversation of 3Shape vs ExoCad. Three technicians that use their software every day come on to discuss the differences and the similarities. Not sales people. Not the company. Real technicians that understand the daily struggles lab face every day.</p>

Lou started in the industry with Captek and now he oversees 40+ labs across the United States.  He talks about how DSG handled COVID and their predictions for life after COVID. Lou explains his inspirations and why it is extremely important to him that each lab, each technician, and each patient gets treated with the care they deserve.
