Complete Denture Course: Hands-on Learning with Real-Life Insights from Kate, Our US Demo Patient

Last week, I ran another Complete Denture course using Kate, an American patient, as the demo case. We had delegates from the Netherlands, India, Romania, and Ireland. It was a fantastic two-day event packed with hands-on and hands-off demonstrations. Kate, who adapted brilliantly to her new dentures, shared her honest experiences with the group, giving real-life insights into wearing complete dentures. The course provided practical tips and techniques that can be immediately applied in clinical practice—great energy and engagement all around!

This month's case features the complete denture provision for Jan, a healthy 66-year-old who desired a smile mimicking her daughter's. Back in the 1990s, a growth was removed from her anterior mandible, and the area was skin grafted. Interestingly, she was still using the same complete dentures made over 30 years ago, which was now very worn. The tooth positions were incorrect too, with the upper teeth placed to far back over the ridge giving poor lip support. The lower denture included an extension at the front to fit over the altered anatomy.
