Message from the 
President

Dear Members,

So many of you have expressed that January has been “a little off” as far as business is concerned and, also that you are having trouble finding the proper help.

The biggest concern from so many laboratory owners is how, what & where do we go? Should we lower prices? Cut back on 
deliveries? Use less expensive metals and porcelains? From my own experience of thirty years, I believe that maintaining your prices and giving your accounts the service that you have always given is our best bet. If you see that you have room for improvement, by all means, do it. But only you know your accounts and how best to serve them. 

I urge each of you to keep the evening of April 23rd open. LIDLA will be having an open forum for all laboratory owners and technicians at Henry Schein Headquarters in Melville at 7:30 p.m. This evening will give all of us a chance to express our concerns and ideas regarding dental technology and how we can come together to make things better for the future. We want to believe in what we are doing and where we are going for the next decade with this very fragile economy that we are living in. 

Also, please mark your calendars for upcoming events. 

On March 19th at 7:30 p.m. a hands-on clinic given by Michael Randazzo, of 3I Comany entitled “The Locator" Overdenture Attachment”. Participants will be eligible for 2 C.E. credits. Please RSVP no later that March 17th. to me at 631-475-3930; or E-mail 
uniteddental@juno.com

On April 12th, Judy Fishman will hold LMT LabDay at The Grand Hyatt Hotel in New York 
City from 8:00 a.m.-5:30 p.m. For more information on this presentation, please call (203) 
459-2888.


In May, we are planning a 
presentation on Implants that will be presented by a Long Island Dentist. Please check “The Articulator” for this and other upcoming events.

I hope to see many of you at these upcoming events and, as always, please feel free to contact me with any concern and suggestions that you may have, which I feel is vital to the success of LIDLA.

Sincerely, 
Tony Fescina, CDT

2003 DUES are Due

Invoices were mailed in January. If you have not sent in your dues, please do so as soon as possible. You will note from the 2002 statement that we carried over only a minute balance so prompt 
payment is vital. Thank you.
