Episode Summary

Dr. Miles Cone is a prosthodontist who shares how bringing a 3D printer into his practice has completely transformed the way he works—making things more efficient, productive, and yes, even more profitable. He talks about how this technology has opened the door to doing things differently, from quickly fabricating models and occlusal guards to whitening trays and provisionals—all in-house, and often the same day.
