| Webinar Description |
| This course is designed for
technicians who would like to learn how to fabricate an implant
overdenture superstructure also known as an overcasting.
Traditionally, these types of castings are done by laboratories that
specialize in implants, attachments and/or removable partial denture
frames. Due to an overwhelming amount of inquiries on this type of
work by our customers; XPdent would like to present simple
techniques on how to fabricate overcastings. Laboratories of all
sizes and specialties can benefit from fabricating this precision
work without investing in costly equipment irrelevant to their
specialty. This is an excellent way to eliminate the stress that
often accompanies subletting this type of work to other
laboratories. There are two simple techniques in fabricating a
precision overcasting: one is the lift off version which is applied
with our pikuplast pattern resin directly onto the relieved implant
bar with all attachment components on the master model. Two is the
refractory method in which the relieved implant bar with all
attachment components in place is duplicated using a quality
silicone duplicating material. Once the mold has set, any popular
investment can be poured in to make the refractory model. After the
refractory model has set and completely dried, wax is applied over
the refractory version of the relieved implant bar and any of its
attachment components. Any of these two techniques can be easily
done by a laboratory that casts regularly. |

| Webinar Description |
| This webinar is an overview of The
Bredent Casting Technique According to Sabath, a reference
manual that covers the entire working spectrum of the
casting process from sprueing, investing and the
chemo-physical processes that occur during alloy melting and
re-cooling. Designed as an instructional resource for dental
technicians, all information is presented in a practical,
to-the-point manner that purposely omits scientific and
metallurgical aspects. The Bredent Casting Technique manual
is an indispensable educational tool that not only serves to
teach newcomers to dental technology but also refreshes the
knowledge of experienced dental technicians. It focuses on
helping the dental technician to fabricate accurate fitting,
dense and homogenous castings. Now typical, everyday
annoyances of the casting process such as suck-backs,
porosities, grainy surfaced castings and rocking bridges can
easily be avoided. |
