ProsthConsult is your place to Prepare Before You Prepare.

This site was inspired by late-night messages received from dental school friends during my prosth residency, such as:

• How should I start with this big case?
• How do I take an impression of 14 teeth for the first time?
• What kind of crown and cement should I use in this high risk situation?
• What’s the best veneer design?
• Can thin ceramics bonded over a molar really work with no retention?
• When is it safe to place an immediate implant and temporary?
• How can I do digital lab work for free?
• And so on … And so on

ProsthConsult is here to help you answer not just these questions, but the bigger questions that stand behind them:

• Nevermind the patient — first off, what are your goals for this case?
• Is it even possible to meet this patient’s goals?
• How do you achieve big case acceptance?
• How do you communicate risk factors and inspire needed treatment?
• How do you make the patient a partner in treatment and not a critic?

Asking and answering questions like this sets the tone for predictable procedures, and more importantly, for a predictable patient relationship too.
