[edit] Micro Cab Sandblaster

On both the 2nd and 3rd Floors in the Central Island, there is a Micro Cab Sandblaster available for INSTRUCTOR CHECK OUT ONLY. Everything you need is in the tub. Please let the Restorative office know if you have used the spare bulb so we can order another one, or if you have used the last of the aluminum oxide, because we have more in the Restorative office.

[edit] Cast Gold Emphasis Clinic

As most of you know by now, there are certain days and clinic sessions where we have dedicated “Cast Gold Clinic”. You also know that you are suppose to have your own supplies for these types of procedures. However, we do keep a cart in the Restorative office where we keep extra supplies and materials. Since most of you prepare for your cases ahead of time, then you know what you will need. Even though, these items are for instructor check out, we will let the student come to pick up what is needed and you will have to leave $100.00 (just kidding) – Name and cell phone number are sufficient.

1. THERE IS NO CAST GOLD STUDY CLUB ANYMORE AS IT WAS REPLACED BY “CAST GOLD EMPHASIS CLINIC”
2. All Cast Gold Partial Veneer Restorations should be done in this clinic.
3. The following instructors are covering “Cast Gold Emphasis Clinic”
   1. Dr. Richard Stevenson and Dr. Lillian Cheng – Tuesday morning
   2. Dr. Lillian Cheng – Tuesday afternoon and Tuesday night clinic
   3. Dr. Esteban Bonilla & Dr. Sacha Dybnis – Wednesday morning
   4. Dr. Esteban Bonilla, Dr. Lillian Cheng and Dr. Ryan Vahdani – Thursday morning
   5. Dr. Esteban Bonilla and Dr. Ryan Vahdani – Thursday afternoon
   6. Dr. William Morgan and Dr. Reuben Kim are also able to cover, however, they are not covering the “Cast Gold Emphasis Clinic” this quarter.
4. The Tucker Technique is utilized in this clinic and each of these instructors is versed in this technique.
5. All cases should go to the Avantage Dental Lab and given to Glorianne or Manuela in the Restorative office. Make sure you put your cell phone number on the lab slip.
6. If you already started with one instructor, that is not a problem to change instructors. If the instructor you are working with wants to continue to cover you, they need to talk to Dr. Stevenson.

[edit] Clinic Rods

Which are also referred to as ENDO RODS are located on the 3rd Floor in the Central Island and they are available to check out. We no longer have them in the Restorative office.
