A ceramist is defined as a 'craftsman who shapes pottery on a potter's wheel and bakes
them it a kiln. ceramicist, potter, thrower. artisan, journeyman, artificer, craftsman - a
skilled worker who practices some trade or handicraft'.
A dental ceramist, sometimes referred to as a dental technician, creates ceramics and
prosthetics, such as dentures, bridges and crowns, for dental patients.
Years ago, while living in a Townhome. I decided to install an 'unauthorized' window air
conditioner into the kickplate of my rear screen room. It had tinted vinyl windows and
this would help to cool of a room that had a western exposure.
When the property manager found it and reported it to the association, I was told by the
Board to remove it. They said that if they were to allow something like this, they would
use my installation as the model for how to do it because it was done so well. But, I still
had to remove it.
The guy that told me this was a dental ceramist. Now I know why he went into that
profession. He probably had to replace his own teeth after he delivered the bad news to
others in the community who wanted to smash him in the face.
