Hi,
I was in the first batch. Heres what the wax excerises were:

So with red wax you have to melt it in a circle which would already be drawn on the paper. I dunno what the exact size was maybe that of a ring. So you have to melt it in a way that its like raised in the middle and tapers off at the edges.Like how a dome shape would be.
The blue wax is where you have to make it two inch thick in height and again melt it in a form of O ring which again already is drawn on the paper given. Also they ask you to ensure that the height of the wax in relation to the paper on which it is melted is at 90 degrees.
For the green stick wax you would also be given already a picture and you have to carve it to exact length specifications given. You have to carve a box in the middle and make one end like the end of a sharpened pencil or crayon. so once you are done you tape it to the diagram given and make sure it matches it. Remember the green stick is looked at all around so its a three dimensional carving.
 
thanks a lot lahoriz. that is very helpful indeed. was just wondering if these exercises were the same for everyone or did people get different exercises?? also, can you tell me about the tooth cutting exercises that u got and any valuable tips u could give.. thanks a lot again..
 
Hi,
Everyone got the same exercises. Be sure to divide time wisely as wax takes time. For tooth prep we were caught off guard with MOL so I would suggesting prepping for MOB too atleast know how its made. Crown prep you cant close the mouth to check occlusion. so occlusal clearance you would check in relation to the adjacent tooth.
Rest practise practise as bench test crucial to admission.

Good luck:)
 
Hi, what do you mean I can't close the mouth ? can't I even rotate it ?

You can rotate it. But the teeth donot occlude properly so u have to check the occlusal clearance looking at the adjacent teeth.
 
Thank you.

Yes you have to involve the oblique ridge, they will give you a paper with all the instructions.

Hi everyone I got an invite today for june 16th.
Although I am happy I got the invitation, I have a few concerns:

I am pregnant and in my 8th month, I am worried if the airlines will allow me to travel or not. I would appreciate if someone who has been in a similar situation can help me out.

Also, for the one day of interview do we just have to be in scrubs for both the personal interview and hand skills exams, or, do we have to have a suit for the interview separately.

PLease any info will help me a lot.

Thanks

hi Unprecedented.....congrats for interview.....do we need to pay any interview fees bcoz i didnt get fees request from them....also I want to know how r u doing preparation for bench exam
 
Hi Docs,
:help:
How did you check the occlusal reduction? or How are you going to check it?:ninja:
What are the dimensions for the lingual part?
thank you in advance:)
 
Aiming high,

Thank you. Congratulations to you too. Once you send a confirmation, they will send you an email regarding bench exam fees in couple of days. It's 200 USD payable to "University of Colorado School of Dental Medicine".

As far as preparation is concerned, I have set a unit at home (so that I can practise at my own mighty will, lol). You can buy the necessary stuff from ebay. Or else, if you have any dentist or dental school, who is willing to let you use their set-up, even better! Good luck.

Cheers!
