Introduction
The course concerns different treatment options and production methods in fixed prosthetics, focusing on crowns or bridges to maintain or recreate the patient’s dental physiology and occlusion and aesthetic appearance. The course emphasises clinical and laboratory technology factors, design, aesthetics and function, particularly with a view to patient habituation.
The porcelain-fused-to-metal subject focuses on material technology conditions. Knowledge of various dental alloys and porcelain-fused-to-metal/ceramic is linked to the design of crowns and bridges. The all-ceramic subject emphasises functional and aesthetic prosthetics from a social perspective and the prerequisites for succeeding with all-ceramic prosthetics. Both subjects use both conventional production techniques and production using CAD/CAM (design, scanning, milling and 3D printing).
Required preliminary courses

- a minimum of 90% attendance in laboratory work and practical training at a blood bank
- a minimum of 80% attendance in scheduled group work

Assessment
One external and one internal examiner will assess at least 20% of the exam papers. Two internal examiners will assess the remaining papers. The external examiner-s assessment shall benefit all the students.
Grading scale
The course paper is assessed by an internal and an external examiner. The external examiner will grade a random sample consisting of approx. 25 per cent of the written exams. The grades given for this sample provide a basis for the internal examiner's assessment. The external examiner will also grade papers where there is doubt about giving a grade of pass.
