    Just recieved my shipping invoice. Looks like I am getting The G-6 tips ( Backordered) , the G-4 tips and a combo pack of G tips.
    Ever wake up the morning after buying a car and not know what color it is or what size engine you have!!
    That said! Any thing else you all think I will need tip wise to work with the water lase. This time I would like to be prepared when I talk with the trainer!!
    Thanks

    Hi David,

    How long did you need to wait for the order?

    David,
    Looking forward to seeing you at the ALD in New Orleans. Last weekend, I was at the Periolase/Milliniuum meeting in Las Vegas. Glenn talked about using the chisel tip when doing Class 2 preps as it gives a bigger footprint and thus less time in prepping. Have you tried it? It sure looked logical.

    Man this was an old thread.
    Yea it will be great to catch up with people at the ALD. I think we need to talk Ron into having a Laser Dental Forum meeting. Nothing fancy more like a study club. That way we can sit around and pick each others brains and have some fun as well –sort of like the old mastermind groups. Oh and by asking Ron it would not be asking Ron to put it together cause he has a lot on his plate already. I think there is enough of us that it could be a worth while event.

    Interestng ideal on the chisel tip. Glenn never tells me stuff anymore!!! I’ll try it.

    Hi David and Sam: I heard about doing this from Bill Grieder at Periolase meeting but I have done it before. WIth the new Versawave pumping out 450 mj per pulse maximum , I think it would be a good idea. I have done it before and found that it worked well for pedo but not as well for adults. The tip is quite long and hard to get into the posterior of the mouth. I would like to see it with a shorter tip as well but then its tough to use with the scope because you cant see around the edge very well.

    Once my laser gets upgraded to the V chip then I may try it again on adult teeth.

    Glenn
