A Two Day Masterclass
A two day limited attendance clinical and laboratory course
with a live demonstration on a patient requiring replacement
complete dentures made to resemble as closely as possible
her original natural dentition. During the course various clinical
and laboratory techniques will be demonstrated culminating
in the fitting and testing of the new denture. In addition,
participants will have hands-on exercises in setting teeth and
contouring artificial gums. With a limit of 7 participants and given
the time available, it will be possible to demonstrate additional
clinical and laboratory procedures in line with delegates interests
and requirements.
Finlay has dedicated a large part of his career to removable denture prosthetics and has worked with his in-house dental technician, Rowan Garstang, for 17 years.
