Student Denturists study for a minimum of three years, focusing on the clinical and laboratory skills necessary to supply removable oral prostheses. Denturists are thoroughly educated in the theoretical and practical aspects of both intra-oral and laboratory procedures. Along with the diagnostic and treatment expertise, Denturists must employ creative manual skills.
Denturists are independent practitioners. The profession of Denturism has developed and grown since its legal recognition in 1961 to incorporate an ever-expanding scope of practice.
