    Ron,
    Did you place the implant? I do not but can see some advantages to tissue control if the restorative dentist were to uncover the implant with tissue goals in mind.

    no I didnt place it but tissue grew over cover screw as we elected no healing abutment due to the lack of space under patients ortho retainer….

    Ron: CLAP CLAP CLAP……..nice stuff and well handled.

    I like what you did.

    If I can make one suggestion about the pics, when you take mirror pictures it reverses the pics so if you look at the first two pics they look like the are the right lateral but in fact it was the left lateral.

    If you get a cheapo editing program……..ADobe LE or I use ACDSee 5 you can quickly flip them and then not worry about printing them or having them look backwards.

    I dont want to sound like I am nitpicking because with such nice pics I want you to be able to show EVERYONE!!

    Way to go………

    Hi Ron , with the level of pictures you are taking often the only things you need are resize , crop, perhaps some minor editing things and rotation (flip and rotations) .

    If you are really a guru , photoshop is a great program but very intense and expensive.

    If you want a basic program for editing , sharing , printing and organizing your photos ACDsee 5.0 is good.

    You can find them at http://www.acdsystems.com and they used to have a 30 day trial download that was kinda cool to try and see if you like it. Its around 70-100 bucks if you want the program and I like it and thats what I post all my pics on is their server (Sendpix).

    Try it and see if they have a download.

    Ron:

    Great pics and wonderful use of your laser to benefit the patient!

    I often find that even with implant healing abutments as soon as I remove them the tissue collapses over the implants and makes it tough to get clear impression. I’ve discussed the issue with periodontists and some suggested using a 4mm biopsy punch. I’m scared to use the radiosurge unit although I have done it on occasion with no failures.

    Here is a case where I used the Biolase Waterlase to remove redundant tissue around four implants for an overdenture.

    P.S. What a fantastic shade blend with your implant crown!!!!!!!!![img]https://www.laserdentistryforum.com/attachments/upload/wiliamsa05.JPG[/img][img]https://www.laserdentistryforum.com/attachments/upload/williamsa06.JPG[/img]

    Ron:

    My photos were taken at 1024X768(approx. 300KB file) then resized to 30% for a 307X230(30KB file). This seems to show up well on the forum without having large pics or taking up much space.

    On the forum, I’m not sure why sometimes the photos stack on top of one another whereas other times they appear side by side.

    Ron:

    P.S. I use Ulead Photo Explorer to organize and edit my images. Very simple for dummies like me and I paid a whole &#3630 for the program at Office Depot.

    Well done Alan and at a reasonable cost. I shoot at the same and resize to 40% in Acdsee 5.0 which is around 60 dollars usa so you beat me!!
