    Ron which light source  are you using on the Global?? The pictures are getting better but not there yet…

    Sieler Halogen. you’re right about these pictures as I forgot to reset the white balance. Everytime I restart the camera I need to reset the white balance to halogen because I haven’t yet programed the proper settings in. This time I forgot. Next week I’ll try and upload some cold sore tx pictures with the proper setting-the colors came out great.

    Have you found with the scope that you are decreasing the Watts and staying more focused?

    Definitely!. I’m amazed at how little energy you can cut with using the scope. All due to being able to see the energy/tissue interaction and also being able to see the approach angle better.

    Nice case Ron and you are on your way on the wonderful world of microphotography. I can tell you that here in Rome at the European society of Operating microscopes that many are using video and its pretty impressive to see them playing DVDs or mini DV tapes edited down and using a Sony Walkman for DV tapes as their only technology and freezing as needed the tape to show a still.

    Pretty cool stuff, sat with a good friend of mine Francesco Martinelli today and he showed me some stills from a video camera that were unreal. That is where we are going with scope documentation. Take videos and when needed grab a still from the video. PRetty cool stuff.

    Gotta go but the scope sure helps you evaluate the tip tissue interaction and help you lower the amount of energy needed as you can really see the way the tip works with the target tissue.

    Helps keep the pain down too.

    The two technologies really do go hand in hand.

    THanks folks…….talk to you soon and nice case ROn……hey next time shave the gingival zeniths and make them even on the centrals…….will make a world of difference to the appearance. If worried about bleeding do it at the end after you are all finished.

    Gotta go folks……chaio and thanks for the kind remarks Ron about it being quiet on the Western front when i go away, and with the aborted landing (10 ft from the runway) that I had coming into Rome I almost wasnt coming back!!

    Gotta go…….cya later

    Mickey,
    What was the chief complaint?
    Was the patient offered soft tissue grafting?
    How high is the lip line?
    How do they feel about having such long teeth?

    Nice work Mickey. Did that patient have a history of GERD? Those lesions look like classic GERD associated erosion. If he hasn’t already, I would urge that patient to get scoped by a gastroenterologist ASAP
