Event Details

Explore the theory and practical steps of complete and partial removable prosthodontics.

For several years, many patients have benefited from removable prostheses, such as complete and partial dentures. Although the incidence of tooth loss has declined markedly in the last few decades, dental clinicians still encounter patients in need of missing teeth replacement. In today’s population, removable prostheses remain a valid treatment option for replacing missing teeth. Removable prostheses are unique, as they replace multiple missing teeth and supporting tissues, improve patient chewing and speech, and restore patients’ appearance. However, the success of the removable prosthesis is largely dependent on its design and the standards of the clinical steps.

This refresher course will simplify removable prosthodontics, focusing on the critical steps for providing a functional, comfortable and aesthetic denture. Update your knowledge and understanding of removable prosthodontics, optimise your skills to increase your scope of practice to include removable prosthodontics, and comfortably manage patients with complete and partial edentulism.

Held over two days, this course is clinically oriented and will cover the theory and practical steps of complete and partial removable prosthodontics. A group of prosthodontists experienced in removable prosthodontics will present lectures on critical aspects for successful removable prostheses followed by hands-on exercises.

Major topics:

  • Treatment planning for completely and partially edentulous patients
  • Clinical steps for removable prostheses
  • Partial denture design
  • Complete denture clinical steps
  • Immediate denture
  • Impressions
  • Denture occlusion
  • Teeth arrangements
  • Implant overdenture introduction.

Learn how to:

  • Evaluate and plan the removable prosthodontic treatment for completely and partially edentulous patients
  • Understand the minimal requirements of denture impressions
  • Design partial dentures
  • Perform teeth set-up
  • Solve common denture problems.
