Hi there! Great question! This facebow is compatible with the hanau. You can see they fall under the whipmix family and if you look at the website you will be that they are compatible. Why did we use this particular combination? It’s because this is what they provide the students at most dental schools which is why I did the video. The anterior reference is captured during the facebow not the mounting.

@@DrCharlieCage you got me intrigued now Dr Cage, I'll have a look at the brochure of the articulator 😏

@@AmritAssi :) I have the link here! www.whipmix.com/products/denar-slidematic-dental-facebow/

Thanks for the link. I'll dig up more 😏

I’m sorry to hear that! There are options such as sedation to help with the experience

I agree with you! Having tattoos does not mean you are not afraid of needles in your mouth. I’m a dentist and I still have fear when I get work done.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Glad it was helpful!

It's a heating pad. More info int eh description

Great question. The goal is to have 3mm of material thickness in the posterior.

Hi, is there a specific thickness of material that we should have between front teeth or we just adapt the height of the front to the 3mm of the back thickness? Thanks for the reply in advance doc!

That’s certainly generalizing. I do not charge my patients a dime for my work that I’ve been doing for the past 12 years but that’s ok. Maybe if you listened to my whole video you wouldn’t have assumed my opinion.

​@DrCharlieCage is there any way you can help me please. I have been having a recurring issue with face swelling from tooth abscess. I have been having such a hard time finding a good dentist in GA

@@TheKaydij I live on the other side of the country. If you have swelling you should see a dentist right away! I hope you can quickly find the care you need!

Good for you!!

Thank you for sharing!

They are sprayed before transferring to the lab and can be handled without gloves.

@@DrCharlieCage actually i m also Prosthodontist.. one article clearly states immersing is suggested to kill most microbes...but it affects properties of impression material so use spray...it means it doesn't kill all microbes not...its better than nothing but not best...gloves are for your safety doc and your patients from cross infection 🙏

@@nihalg23 I understand, there is always an article to support one thing or another. so my question is, did the study you mentioned say the change was statistically significant? As a prosthodontist, I'm sure you understand the areas that can introduce inaccuracies (impression material, impression technique, mixing stone, mixing technique etc). No matter what, verification of your mounting should be done by assessing the occlusal stops on your patient intraorally and comparing it to the model. Having unsanitized bite-registration on stone models sounds unsanitary and understanding a stone model cannot be sanitized properly due to its porosity. Even if it was sprayed, there is plenty of evidence that shows it can affect the hardness of the stone which can lead to decreasing the surface hardness resulting in more abrasion and then...inacurracies. This is all a moot point as most clinicians are moving to digital impressions and bite registration. Anyways, as a post-graduate educator for dentists and practicing clinician for over 11 years, I would not advocate for using bite registration without sanitizing it (ALL LABS SANTIZE BITE-REGISTRATION UPON RECEPT TO THE LAB). Also understanding the limited contact time with chemicals on the bite registration and the minute effects it may have on accuracy. Please reconsider sanitization issues and if not, then we will just agree to disagree!

Any little bit helps to reduce hand fatigue! ❤️

Glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you so much!!

For the longest time I couldn’t tolerate an electric. I did convert about a year ago and don’t think I’ll ever go back but there is no way we can say that only one tool works for everyone! Stay brushing! 😂 ❤️

What’s the challenge with this? I would like to help!

I’m happy you’re here!!!! Represent!! ❤️

@@DrCharlieCage Thx❤️

I’m so happy to hear that!

Hi there! It depends on how you are mounting it. Look at the articulator and it's compatibility with the facebow. I know hanau third point of reference is for frankforts (infraorbital rim) or ivoclar's facebow with stratos articulator can be the same or use campers plane (ala of the nose)

Glad it helped

That’s right! I do things different nowadays to expedite the process. I love a products called telio onlay. I quickly mold it on the patients tooth with some anatomy, check occlusion, light cure, and then take an index of that.

Not without introducing inaccuracies in the mounting. The best bet is to thin out the maxillary cast. It sounds to me like the capturing of the facebow needs to be adjusted to prevent that from happening again

That’s very sad to hear. Luckily most aren’t that way!

Care to elaborate?

Glad you like them! You are 💯 on it!

I’m sure you can call your local rep for there exact cost. Most dentist actually have no idea what the tool is. Balance cost vs benefits and see if it ideal for your practice. For me and the dentists I teach, it is!

I usually just slide the toothbrush between the tongue and teeth. This won't help with tongue placement. Maybe having them lay down with their head on your lap that way gravity will help give you access to their teeth.

It definitely depends on the patient. For my population, I stock up more on mediums. 😆 I guess they have bigger mouths!

I’m not sure if I understand your comment but let new try and let me know if this makes sense. If doing 6 veneers only (not changing posterior occlusion) I would mount my casts in MI. I will take and mount CR record if I’m changing posterior occlusion (eg. increase VDO, full mouth rehab). Generally…understanding that there are always exceptions

@@DrCharlieCagethanku after preparation face bow tranfer and bite registration should taken then mount both cast .

@@harshsharma7057 yes, if a facebow is taken, then mount that, then mount mandibular cast in MI.
