Therse clinical courses comprise a wide range of clinical and many laboratory procedures in fixed, removable partial and maxillofacial prosthodontics. They enhance the student's understanding of the importance of careful patient and mouth evaluation for different clinical situations requiring prosthodontic treatment. The relationship between fixed and removable partial prosthodontics is emphasized. Post-insertion follow-up and observation of individual reaction to the prosthesis are also focussed on. As the student gains clinical experience in a staged fashion in these courses, his/her professional competence develops cumulatively.
