Dr. James L. Cassidy, Jr. - a Dentist in Macon, Georgia
Educational Topics
Prosthetic Lab Skills
12 Years ago, Dr. James Cassidy began implementing the techniques taught by Dr. Jack Turbyfill into his practice. His years of experience in developing these skills have made it possible to achieve predictable, functional, and esthetic results with removable prosthetics.
Understanding the importance of a highly trained staff to properly support these prosthetic laboratory skills, Dr. Cassidy designed this course to strengthen your team and make successfully treating complex restorative cases a reality in your practice. By participating in laboratory exercises taught in this workshop, your staff will have the opportunity to see theory put into practice.
Laboratory skills you and your staff will learn:
- How to determine the "S" position and record it using a facebow and articulator
- How to set six anterior teeth
- How to fabricate a transfer base with speaking wax
- How to fabricate base plate and occlusion rims on an upper and lower edentulous model
- How to fabricate a duplicate denture
- How to work with the "bead box and pour technique"
- How to perform in office relines
