Ruth will discuss tooth selection, setting teeth and occlusion. She will demonstrate anatomical waxing of the gums and the use of Enigma color tones to custom match denture flanges.
The course requires a great deal of hands-on work, so the participants will be sent preparatory work prior to arriving at the course.
