-
8.00 Credits
Hours: 8 Course ID: 004883 Students fabricate dental prostheses at a more advanced level in at least one of the following specialty areas: complete denture prosthodontics, dental ceramics, fixed prosthodontics (crown and bridge), orthodontic appliances, or removable partial denture prosthodontics. Emphasis is placed on incorporating productivity flow time, and quality requirements. Laboratory experience is provided in the classroom or selected externships in local dental laboratories. Prerequisite: DLT 261. Lecture: 2 credits (30 contact hours); Laboratory: 6 credits (270 contact hours). Component: Laboratory, Lecture
