Introduction to Complete Dentures

This course is for the professional who desires to take removable or implant prosthetic technology to the highest level.  It will guide the participants through advanced concepts and techniques to achieve truly esthetic removable prosthetics. This is an intensive three-day hands-on course that has an emphasis on teaching efficient techniques for gingival base wax contouring, denture base characterization and individual denture tooth colorization for complete dentures and implant hybrid prosthetics. Participants will learn intrinsic and extrinsic characterization techniques using acrylics and composites. For the intrinsic technique participants will use Candulor's Aesthetic Color Set Easy acrylic resins and for the extrinsic technique the Nexco composite resin system.  Each participant will gain technical knowledge with a better understanding of Prosthodontic variables and how to create complete dentures or implant hybrid prosthetics that consistently exceed esthetic expectations and desires.
