Zahntechnique Removable Webinar Series
At Zahntechnique, we’re always focused on educating and consulting with our clients about the latest and most important topics in dentistry. This summer, we have something special prepared to help you enhance your skills in removable dentistry, so you’re equipped to assist your patients, even with the less favored treatment approaches – removable.
Together, let’s turn these into our favorites. In reality, removable dentistry is the foundation of almost every complex treatment, whether it’s a flipper for a single-tooth implant, a full denture, or an implant-retained overdenture. We’re here to support you and meet both your needs and those of your patients.
Below are the topics for our upcoming webinars, which are divided into six easy-to-watch modules.
Module 1. Basic Foundation to Removable Dentures and Partial Dentures
Wednesday, August 14, 2024
Removable dentistry may not be a favorite among many dentists and their patients, but it is crucial for providing comprehensive care, especially for those with complex restorative needs. Not everyone can afford fixed implant restorations, so we need modern approaches to offer viable solutions for edentulous patients. I am confident we can continue to innovate and elevate the standards in removable dentistry.
Learning Objectives:
• Understand the fundamental components of removable dentistry
• Clearly describe the necessary steps to achieve successful results
• Utilize models, custom trays, and bite blocks to establish a VDO, ensuring clear communication between the dental office and laboratory

Module 2. Analog Removable Full Dentures and Partial Dentures

Smiling from ear to ear? There are many advantages to complete and partial dentures. They are designed to closely resemble natural teeth, so there should be no noticeable change in appearance.

Dentures are cost-effective and durable with proper maintenance, improving chewing functions, enhancing appearance, improving speech, and benefiting patients’ nutrition.
