Work History
CAD Designer
Glidewell Dental-Irvine, CA
11.2018 - Current
To briefly summarize I’m in charge of reading an RX from a doctor specifying what he’d like me to design for his patient. After reading the RX I take scans of the models sent by the doctor. I then design on CAD CAM to create a functional and proper fitting partial denture. I’m then tasked with creating nice looking teeth to add to the base of metal I designed. Finally I finish by creating an export file to send to the print team and placing the file in the proper folder.
