The skill and confidence to do them is difficult, but thanks to Dr. Brandon Kofford, the day of surgery is getting even easier. Two years ago, Dr. Kofford came on this podcast to talk about Smart Denture Conversion. The workflow to make a faster and better converted denture. Well after a lot of work and FDA planning, they are back as Smart on X and have introduced the Omibut (https://smartonx.com/pages/omnibut), a new MUA that can be used at any angle. He also talks about improving the original version to make Smart Denture Conversion 2.0 (https://smartonx.com/collections/smart-denture-conversions-kits/products/pre-coated-tibase-recharge-kit)and the use of prefabricated arches (https://smartonx.com/pages/rapid-arches).
