One more thing. Check the condition of the mesial of 46. If it looks like its been damaged when we go to mark the crown it will be assumed that happened during the preparation and you will be marked accordingly. The distal of 84 should be nice an smooth since you just filled it. Jim

Tomorrow's competency
by James Ksionzyk 15 Apr '26

15 Apr '26

Just to be sure we are all on the same page. You will be prepping one stainless steel crown on 85. We will be providing the tooth. Come prepared to remove the existing tooth and place a new one. The expectation is that you will prep the tooth with rubber dam. Once prepped you will bring your dentoform to the front to select a crown. You will not be given assistance to select a crown. It’s your choice what size you wish to use. Then take the dentoform back to your station, remount it in the head and fit your crown. When you have finished you will put your dentoform with the crown on the tooth and a piece of paper with your name and number in the dentoform box. You will leave that with the instructor. We will mark the crowns over the next few days and will return marks to everyone before the final exam. There will not be any feedback during the test. There are no points during the test that require a check. Because the crown can be removed we are able to check the prep and the fit at the same time. Once you have handed in your dentoform you are free to leave. If you wish to stay and work on other projects you may but you must work quietly and in such a way as not to disturb the other students who are still working. You will have until 3:00 to complete your crown. My expectation is that it will take you much less than that time to complete. If anyone has any questions please email me and I will send a response back to the whole class after removing any information about who asked the question. Thanks and good luck Jim

Pokerogue: A Roguelike Pokémon Game Built for Strategy
by amethystshelli＠sharebot.net 02 Apr '26

02 Apr '26

If you love Pokémon and roguelike challenges, Pokerogue is the browser-based experience that brings both worlds together. It’s a browser-based Pokémon game with procedural gameplay, where each run feels fresh, unpredictable, and exciting—perfect for players who enjoy adapting under pressure. In Pokerogue, you’ll battle through changing encounters, make tough choices in turn-based battle, and build a team designed to survive permadeath-style stakes. https://playpokerogue.com https://dex.playpokerogue.com Gameplay Overview Pokerogue is a browser-based roguelike Pokémon game built around replayable runs. Your journey is made of consecutive battles, including trainer fights and boss encounters, and the difficulty escalates as you push farther. A core element is that the game uses procedural generation to keep things interesting: encounters, progression pacing, and the path of your run can vary. The result is a procedurally generated runs loop that supports that “learn, adapt, and try again” mindset. If you lose, the run ends—making every decision matter. What’s especially compelling is how Pokerogue blends traditional Pokémon systems (like move selection and team roles) with roguelike pressures (like item choices and evolving challenges). Key Features Several mechanics make Pokerogue stand out for fans of both genres: Procedural Runs & Evolving Difficulty Each run brings different biomes, encounters, and escalating threats. That means your strategy can’t rely on memorization. Team Building Strategy That Actually Matters You’re not just picking Pokémon—you’re planning around strengths, roles, and move coverage. Your team building strategy affects your odds from the first battle to the last boss. Upgrade Systems, Items, and Meta Progression Runs reward you with items dropped from encounters or found in the environment. These items stack and can heavily influence future battles. The game also includes meta-style progression, letting your achievements improve what you can do in later runs. IV-Focused Power and Catching Rewards The site highlights the importance of IVs for Pokémon strength. Catching and building toward stronger starters is a big part of long-term improvement. How to Play Playing Pokerogue is quick and download-free. Visit playpokerogue.com, start a new run, and select your starter(s). The site describes starter selection using assigned values (so team composition requires thoughtful choices). During battles, you choose moves strategically to defeat enemy Pokémon and gain experience. Between fights, you’ll continue exploring, catching Pokémon in diverse biomes, and collecting items that can decide your fate. Tips & Strategies To do well in Pokerogue, focus on consistency and adaptation: First, build around synergy, not just favorites. A strong team building strategy usually means balancing offense, survivability, and move coverage. Second, pay close attention to move selection in each turn-based battle. Don’t spam the strongest move—match moves to enemy threats and game state. Third, treat items as part of your plan. In Pokerogue, healing items matter because there are no traditional Pokémon Centers during the run, so good item choices can keep your team alive long enough to snowball. Finally, embrace unpredictability. Since procedural gameplay can throw curveballs at you, try to learn what your team handles well and adjust your run decisions accordingly. Conclusion Pokerogue is a fun, challenging roguelike Pokémon game that rewards smart play, flexible thinking, and careful planning. With its browser-based Pokémon game format, procedurally generated runs, permadeath-style stakes, and strategic turn-based battle, it offers the kind of momentum that keeps players coming back. If you enjoy team building strategy and roguelike unpredictability, Pokerogue is worth your time—because every run can become your next breakthrough.
