The objective of this book is to provide the undergraduate and the student dental technician with enough clinical introductory material to explain the laboratory procedures and, at the same time, provide a logical sequence of steps in the constuction of removable appliances. In the laboratory teaching of denture construction, complete denture procedures are easier to perform and less complex than partial denture procedures procedures. Therefore, for this reason, the authors have presented laboratory complete denture construction prior to partial denture procedures.
