24 CE Credits
A two-day course designed to instruct complete denture prosthetic concepts for the dental professional that will increase personal knowledge, proficiency and productivity. This course emphasizes primarily three areas of complete denture fabrication.
Communication
It is imperative that the clinician provide “patient records” that can be utilized by the dental laboratory to guide them in the accurate selection and placement of the denture teeth. These are relatively simple clinical records to make but they can be extraordinarily helpful to the technician during the process of setting denture teeth.
Setting denture teeth
The previously mentioned “patient records” are programmed to special components of the Stratos Articulator. These components combined with the user friendly Stratos Articulator greatly facilitates the consistency, predictability and efficiency of setting denture teeth.
Denture processing(Demonstration only)
The Ivobase injection denture processing system is will be demonstrated by course instructor. Information will be provided on the concept of injection molding and how it minimizes polymerization shrinkage and produces a superior product. Participants will experience a detailed step by step educational experience that will include demonstrations on productive investing procedures, complete wax elimination, effective separator application, tips on injection and careful methods of deflasking. Attention to the details of processing can provide a processed denture that requires minimal finishing and polishing efforts.
