Complete Denture Education in U.S. Dental Schools

Abstract: Clinical complete denture predoctoral programs vary from school to school, yet a large percentage of schools agree on many topics. Only 55% of schools reported incorporating new educational materials such as the use of dental implants and treatment of patients with implant-retained overdentures at the predoctoral level.

[8][9][10][11][12][13][14] Studies related to AEP have been based on surveys of program directors, deans, and practicing prosthodontists.
