Hey fellows,
Hope my post finds you well, first i want to congratulate all the dentists who got an interview, and wish the rest will get one soon.
I need your help here guys, I'm confused regarding the wax preparation, I know we have to do 3 things, but, I read that " Melting a wax into a dome shape " and " filling 0 or S shape with wax " . Would you please explain that to me, I've a cat brain and can't imagine that :D .
Let's say, to do a dome, do you have to carve and melt the wax ? or melt the wax use the melted drops of wax to build it :D:confused::eek: ? ( I know some will consider it a stupid question ) . And what about filling S or O shape ? do they give you a toy to fill the wax in it ?
One more thing, they said making a pencil shape ? is it round or hexagon one :rolleyes: ?

I ready do appreciate your patience with my questions and I'll be so grateful for your answers.

Best of luck everyone.
Have a blessed day.:oops:

Hi,
Anyone want to share accomodation for interview on may 19, ping me.
Thanks
 
I have made reservations at the Spring Hill Suites Marriott for April 20 check-in and April 21 Check out.

The reservation is for 2 persons, the approximate cost for sharing the room would be $50-$60, There are 2 separate Queen Beds available in the room

The hotel is pretty close to University of Colorado compared to other hotels and also accessible by public transport.

I'm a guy and if anybody wants to share the room, please email me at [email protected]
 
Hi Everyone,

I have an interview call for April 21. Well for bench test I borrowed a Kilgore dentoform from a dentist friend of mine and ordered kilgore teeth online from kilgore website to prepare on. From my research of SDN threads and asking around, PFM is usually on anteriors particularly incisor or premolar. However just to be safe also prepare a molar. Gold crown is usually on posterior and in 2010 it was tooth # 30. Class 2 can be amalgam (more chances ) or composite on posterior and usually MO.

For wax exercises you have to do three things: Its to check your manual dexterity

Red rope wax make an alphabet S or O usually
Blue inlay wax melt in a circle
Green stick wax : Carve a rectangle box in it and shape it like a crayon

I ordered the waxes from one of the local suppliers and using a burner at home to try to prep.

Hope that helps:)

Thank you so much for your input but i've heard that they test us only on posterior teeth? even PFM's. do you know if they asked to prep a crown on an anterior tooth before? Does anyone know please?

Thanks
