1. Practice makes perfect.
2. Nobody's perfect
So, practice more! On a Rs. 4000 typodont, with Rs. 100 odd per piece ivorine teeth, mounting rods you don't have and a phantom head... what phantom head??!!
No.
I've been agitating the little grey cells a lot lately to come up with an inexpensive yet practical solution to the problem of simulated practice, and here is something to show for it...
Follow the pictures...save them...enlarge them...read the caps...don't stop!...go ahead and try it out for yourself...ideate...modify...click some pics...blog em! ( btw, dont forget to do some dentistry while ur at it!)
The idea was to create an endo - prostho typodont. Because we're using natural teeth (u could use ivorine $$$) a natural root canal system exists.
Shoot a R/G. Do an RCT.
Restore it with whatever you have.
Follow it all up with a crown prep.
Make an impression.
Temporize your prep.
Do some technical work.
The works!!!
Anyway, I hope its of use to you.
Its an idea, guys. Try it out!
