Hi, I'm looking for a female roomate to share accomodation in Newport Beach on 10/25 & 10/26. PM me if interested. Thanks.
The number to register for the UoP mockboard is 1-800-922-4UOP within California. Go to the website and look in Continuing Education for more info.
Anyone practising on kilgore ?...... Please tell me in DO 20 do we have to involve the distolingual groove in the outline form...... since there is a groove it should ideally be extended in the outline form but then the prep looks really weird .....as it is kilgore is not very appealing where outline form is concerned.... will it be a major error if we do not extend it into this DL groove.............anyone please help........what does dr Duggan or anyone else say ...... anyone knows?
Please somebosy reply regarding this.......also what does RGS stand for ....pardon my ignorance........
...
Thanks
hey guys,
in the letter from dbc,regd the exam,for the uop site they mention that u can only use star handpiece, any idea anyone if bein air handpiece's can be used? i am getting worried,if not then is there a place where we can loan a handpiece,i don't want to go buy another hanpiece.....
just have your regular 4 hole handpiece and you will be ready to rock.good luck.
At the exam committee meeting at UOP last summer, someone asked the board members what were they looking for in a Class III prep? And this what they said:
1.5 - 2 mm tall incisogingivally
1.2 mm axially
Maintain incisal contact
Break gingival by 0.5 mm
Break facial barely.
Bevel optional
Rounded internal line angles
Hope this is helpful.
Talked to Dawn two weeks ago. They prepared no such guidelines, so NO measurements will be released for the November exams.

Good Day
same here ..i saw a STAR handpiece and looks different ..anybody took the exam at UOP? i have 4-hole handpice (Black Pearl) do you think i can use it at UOP site? any help will be appreciated!
hi,
why don't we all seek help from people studying at UOP? is there anybody out there from UOP who can tell us more about which handpieces work there?
Thank you!
I tested at UOP in April. The star handpiece is different and that is the high speed handpiece they use at the school. However, any 4 hole HP will fit and work well in their low speed attachment which is right next to their HS attachment on the side of the manikin. In addition they will provide you with another cable having a 4 hole adapter attached to the counter. This one you can use for the low speed HP.
Dont be paranoid about the HPs. There is a lot more to worry about

hi, this is what i know: you can still use the same rod that u have,but columbia has come out with a new rod,this rod is 's' shaped so the typodont can open about 10 mm more, i havn't seen it,but i have ordered it. u can buy it from columbiadentoform for 3.25$ or from usc,ucla,and dr duggan's is selling it. its called KBRD 2.5. but u can definetly use the old one,which is the straight one,i didn't have any so when i ordered i got this one... so if u have the older one don't worry...Good Day All

hi,
i just got the rod,its not an 's',infact its just slightly bent at the centre and yes it definetly allows u open the typodont more than a straight rod... so if u get it its good.. or else even straight one is good...
