vinceSpectatorHi Glen,
Really well done, temps look great.

SwpmnSpectatorGlenn:
I use the Williams probe, get it, Williams probe??? 😉 Ok, Ok, you know, the old metal one. Is the first black mark on your probe 3mm? In the photos are you pushing the probe all the way through the attachment until it stops on osseous to determine your biologic width? What if the biologic width is less than what you probed? That means we have to reduce the osseous crest right?
The purpose of gating or pulsing the diode was to give the tissue time to relax from the thermal insult correct? Like Dr. Bob’s always talking about?
Please make sure to add a post op to this thread when you complete the case. I want to see how the tissue heals so I can learn how to do these cases.
Thanks for sharing,
Al
whitertthSpectatorglenn, great stuff…i must say i love your posts…… always learn something….thanks again…………
Glenn van AsSpectatorThanks Vince and Ron …….nice of you guys to compliment me. These cosmetic cases on demanding patients are tough, especially the temps for veneers…..sheesh.
Anyways Allen…….as for the probe, yes the first spot is 3mm and so to the bone was deeper but the pocket was 2-3 mm so I could take a mm or so but not much more. I like to leave 2 mm or so total.
I cant probe all the way to bone with these probes as they are a little soft for that (bend a little).
I will post the finals.
Hope they work out but again if there is inflammation ( we will just do closed flap erbium osseous reduction).
