Course Description
The aim of this course is to teach the principals of tooth preparation for porcelain fused to metal crowns and bridges on upper and lower jaw models, preclinical impression methods, laboratory stages of fabricating porcelain fused to metal crowns and bridges such as model transfer to the articulator, wax modeling, investing, casting process, porcelain application, adaptation, finishing and polishing, casting errors and their causes. Students will learn to prepare adjacent teeth in phantom jaws and models with die, transfer occlusal registration to the articulator, make wax modeling and casting, apply porcelain on metal substructure, perform finishing, polishing and adapting stages of fixed restorataions, andobserve ergonomics when working with the phantom head.
