Description
Summary:Aim: The aim of the research is to make an analysis of the most often FDM-Sofia students' errors in the partial dentures fabrication process. Materials and methods: A number of 155 partial dentures were analysed after the practical exam of the 2nd year FDM-Sofia students. Some of the basic fabrication errors were analysed such as; proper resin polymerization, finishing and polishing process, denture borders shaping, interdental spaces, teeth setup, clasps and major connector profile. Results: The results from the research revealed significant theoretic and practical errors, due to inadequate training process of the students. We found a necessity to introduce a problem-based education in the PPDM training process. Conclusion: The contemporary education in prosthetic dental medicine, should lead the students into understanding the frames of problem-based education.
