Laboratory Techniques

Making your own lab work used to be part of every dentistry curriculum, but in recent years this has taken a back seat, and many dentists do not feel well informed about laboratory procedures.

This Dentaljuce module takes you through the lab stages for a variety of indirect restorations.

Member Feedback on Laboratory Techniques

Wonderful videos.
This module was important in understanding the processes involved in creating indirect restorations and as well as what would be required from a clinician to send to the lab in terms of preps etc to fabricate the best indirect restoration for the patient.
It did make me give thought to design and fit from the beginning.
Helpful in me identifying potential design problems with intra-oral preparations.
