Should I use different shade guides for different products?
This is not necessary; however, we routinely use the most popular shade guides (3D, Vita Classic, Vita, Chromascop, Bioform etc) and can convert and modify the shade you provide to perfectly match the desired restoration.

Other than the impression and completed prescription, what else should I send
with my case?

For a successful case, we recommend you send the following:

A Full-Arch Impression Bite Registration Photos

Pre-Op models Stump Shade (for all-ceramic restorations) Facebow or Stick Bite

What types of articulators do you use?
We use a variety of articulators available to suit every case requirement:

Acculiner Hanau Keystone Panadent

Artex Dentatus Sam 3 Stratos 200

Kavo Protar 5 Denar Kavo Sam3

Whipmix 8500 Whipmix model 2240

How do I block out a dark prep?
There are a number of ways to successfully block out a dark preparation, we routinely recommend utilizing a composite material on the prepared tooth before bonding (you can bond on top of the composite) or you can also utilize opaque cement.
