My number one factor in avoiding post-treatment sensitivity following the delivery of indirect restorations is the management of force dynamics in the occlusal morphological design.  This is one reason I like the virtual digital design to control occlusal contact placement.  This video's occlusal design concept uses Primescan and the latest CEREC software.  These principles apply to Exocad and 3 Shape software, and I am also branching into these virtual design softwares.

When designing teeth at the midline, it is best to create mirror mesial incisal, labial, and cervical embrasures. The midline is best managed with the vertical axis of the face. This is why I use BioCopy and preplan the case with a wax-up to simplify and provide a system for very predictable results.

Work from the midline distally (Design and Finishing Workflow). Choose the central with the largest root truck and set it to the midline using the 2D guide. Then remove the model and finish the proximal mesial of the single central

This video will convey my top 3 tips for making the CEREC process fly. And believe it or not, it has nothing to do with the software. It has to with what we deliver into the software.

Welcome to The Dental Show Live.  I do this webcast with Dr. Todd Ehrlich (Digital Enamel) about dental topics related to digital dentistry. The Dental Show is streamed live weekly on Facebook and uploaded to The Dental Show Live youtube channel.  

This live presentation reviews the advantages to in-office CAD/CAM (Primescan by Dentsply Sirona) when it comes to managing and controlling restorative occlusion. Dr. Klim will present his Primescan software design strategy for shimstock quality milled in-office restorations.

Part one video in BioJaw anterior design series. The way I save time in my anterior design theater is to go into the case preplanned with a wax-up which I now do in inLab, print the model and use the wax-up as a reduction guide and basis for making provisionals when needed.  Time-saving comes from being certain with preparation reduction protocols for the case and then propose and refine with BioJaw, still using a BioCopy component to guide the BioJaw placement.  One thing unique to this case review is the strategy used to block out a dark root.
