Jaz's Introduction: I love restorative dentistry. But the thing I always enjoyed the least I guess is DENTURES, complete dentures because I had a bit of experience. And I did a restorative post and I did loads of complete dentures I quite enjoyed.
Jaz's IntroductionBut chrome dentures, for whatever reason, demographics exposure, didn't get enough chance to practice the art of chromed dentures. And to be honest with you, I never got on with surveyors and I never really understood denture design. Now fast forward many years, and I started to get a more elderly patient base and the demand for good quality denture work increased. So, I had to match that demand. And I've been relying too much on my technicians to help me with the denture design and touchwood, I've had some good results so far. And what that did, it inspired me to learn more, I want to take control of the denture design now, hence why I've got Finlay Sutton coming next month. So, now it's December. In January 2023, he’s coming to Reading I'm bringing him down south because I'm allergic to the north. And I'm just so excited to start implementing everything he's teaching, but this episode will go a long way in teaching you about the philosophy of SCANDINAVIAN CHROMED DENTURES as well as for the younger dentists, every single sequence of Chrome Denture Provision, what is done at each appointment and why you do it in that order.
