MicroDental. A Modern Lab For Today’s Dentistry.
MESSAGE FROM KIM
As the changing needs of patients continue to drive
remarkable innovations into everyday dentistry,
MicroDental has embraced the changing expectations
of doctors and patients alike. Inspired by modern
technologies and new processes, we have taken steps to
advance our laboratory to fit the dynamic requirements of
doctors who seek superior patient experiences.
As such, I am excited to announce several revolutionary products from
MicroDental. I proudly introduce the recently FDA cleared MicrO2™. It is
the industry’s smallest and easiest to use mandible repositioning device
to alleviate symptoms of Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA). With a Patent
pending, the MicrO2 is entirely CAD/CAM manufactured for precision and
fit. We have worked side by side with our partner doctors since it’s inception
to design a device that does not require patients to manage any mechanical
adjustments. Being on the front line of screening and managing patients
with OSA, we see this as a valuable new product to offer your patients.
Along with the rapidly growing population of edentulous patients,
MicroDental brings you ZEUS™ Zirconia Implant-Retained Prosthesis (ZIP).
ZEUS ZIP is more durable and esthetic than the often high-maintenance
hybrid denture alternatives, and is easier to clean so it is more convenient
for both you and your patients. Moreover, a unique 3-step verification
process is used for a predictable and accurate outcome.
I am also excited to offer to our existing MicroDental clients in the United
States, their first look at our new web portal—called: My Dental Lab.
Now in live BETA stage, My Dental Lab web portal will allow registered
users to use the eRx function to digitally place orders as well as specify
restoration design. Through My Dental Lab, registered customers can also
view orders, monitor cases, view case history, leave notes, comments and
recommendations about the case—all online—available 24 hours a day, 7-days
a week. I encourage you to register now to try out My Dental Lab web portal.
This is only the beginning! MicroDental is working on even more ways to
bring your practice to new levels in the near future. I thank you for your
partnership and I am honored to continue presenting you with innovations
to improve the success of your practice.

MICRODENTAL CLINICAL TIP
DIAGNOSTIC WAX-UPS; MORE THAN JUST A PATIENT
EDUCATION AID! – BY DR. MARK T. MURPHY
Especially when there are irregularities in the arch from, the
wax-up can be used to make reduction matrices or guides that help
us objectively visualize that we have enough room for the restorative
material. This patient wanted the central brought back into line. We
did the wax-up, made a PVS matrix and then cut it so that we could see
into the preps and make sure there was enough reduction. They can
be used facially (as shown) or inciso-occlusally. Sometimes, if we don’t
do this, we get an unesthetic restoration.
