Preclinical Course in Prosthetic Dentistry II (ZPK_024)
About Study Course
Objective
1. To introduce students with the basic principles of functional tooth anatomy and occlusion and to integrate the acquired knowledge in practical work by preparation of artificial phantom teeth for metal-ceramic crowns and bridges according to occlusal basic paradigms.
2. To give students an understanding of fixed partial tooth supported dentures (focusing on metal-ceramic crowns and bridges), of their manufacturing possibilities, of tooth bio-mechanical and aesthetic preparation principles, the stages to be performed in clinical work and the dental technical laboratory and the bio-materials to be used in the relevant stage of work.
3. To develop skills to perform sequential clinical steps in the fabrication of fixed tooth supported partial dentures (metal-ceramic crowns and bridges on artificial phantom teeth in preclinical conditions) - to prepare teeth according to bio-mechanical preparation principles, to fabricate and cement a temporary restoration, to take an impression for working model, to fulfill an order for a technical dental laboratory, to perform try-in steps, to recognize the errors, to deliver the prostheses, to give instruction for patient when delivering partial fixed tooth supported dentures.

Learning outcomes
As a result of successful acquisition of the study course, students will be able to:
1. to list the bio-mechanical principles of tooth preparation when choosing different materials for fixed partial tooth-supported dentures;
2. to sequentially name and explain in detail the steps to be performed in clinical work and in the dental technical laboratory and the biomaterials to be used in the respective steps of the work , when fabricating fixed partial tooth-supported prostheses (crown or bridge).
As a result of successful acquisition of the study course, students will be able to:
1. prepare artificial lateral teeth from phantom jaws according to the bio-mechanical principles of tooth preparation and chosen material for crown or bridge;
2. to manufacture and cement a temporary fixed partial tooth-supported dentures on artificial phantom jaw teeth (temporary crown and bridge);
3. to take an impression from prepared teeth for fabrication of c;
4. to fulfill an order for a technical dental laboratory;
5. to perform try-in steps for metal ceramic fixed partial tooth-supported dentures, to recognize and analyse the possible errors;
6. to cement and deliver the metal ceramic fixed partial tooth-supported dentures, to give instruction for patient
As a result of successful acquisition of the study course, students will be able to:
1. integrate the acquired knowledge about the functional anatomy of different groups of teeth and occlusion into practical work by tooth preparation for different material fixed partial tooth-supported prostheses; by fabricating temporary restorations on artificial phantom teeth;
2. to analyze indications, possible complications and long-term factors when planning fixed partial tooth-supported dentures;
3. to substantiate the choice of certain instruments, work accessories and manipulations to be performed in the clinic by preparing teeth for partial fixed tooth supported dentures;
4. identify and critically evaluate own clinical work failures and their possible causes, and find solutions.
