The Realities of Removable Prosthodontics

September 14, 2012 (Friday)Bismarck, North Dakota

M. Nader Sharifi, DDS, MS

Featuring:

This full-day course is designed to shed light on options for restoration of missing dentition without the use of fixed or implant retained restorations. Participants review the principles of removable prosthodontics by focusing on treatment situations where patients requested treatment other than fixed bridges or implants.

The program will include a discussion of the anatomic limitations of patients and their effect on the final prosthesis. Various impression techniques are available for removable prosthodontic therapy, their indications will be clarified enabling participants to make an informed decision for their patients. Partial denture framework design will be comprehensively covered introducing a simplified approach to designing RPD frameworks.

2012 NDDA Annual Sess ion

Overall patient satisfaction is built when the prostheses have limited movement. Everything discussed in this program will have a positive impact on limiting the movement of your prostheses. Participants will learn that denture stability through occlusal design is of paramount importance – and how to achieve it.

Understand various impression techniques for removable prosthodontics.Debate conflicting removable partial prosthodontic clasp design.Learn the indication for, and preparation of, rest seats for RPDs.Complete an interactive partial denture framework design.Learn to identifying the difficult denture patient before it is too late.Identify different options for occlusal patterns with removable prosthodontics.

Best of all, participants examine the range of new materials that make removable prosthodontics more pleasant, profitable, and satisfying – to help reinforce the idea that providing patients with removable prostheses can be the most enjoyable and valuable aspect of practicing dentistry.

An understanding of the difficult patient and how to avoid the pitfalls of their treatment is presented. Patient interaction and esthetics are covered throughout the course to better ensure participants handle even the most challenging cases without sacrificing quality or profitability.

This all day course is best suited for restorative dentists and lab technicians.
