For dental professional use only.

Soaking the impression in water for a few minutes after it is set helps to pull the model out of the tray easier

when I learned this in school it seemed like the hardest thing ever and after watching this video I understand it completely, thank you!!!

Wow much better technique than what I do (adding stone to impression in 2 layers). Good tip on going slow

When I train Lab Technicians I tell them that the mix should look like a 'Frosty'.

Whenever I pour into the dental molds the end result is slightly different causing bad castings for gold teeth. I tried vacuum chamber but it seems to break off the sprues or create a big mess.

A vacuum mixer is best for when mixing model stone but usually only dental labs have those.
