A sample from this course

One topic, as StudyPath teaches it.

Tooth carving

Tooth carving is the art of shaping artificial teeth to replicate the form, size, and function of natural dentition. Mastery of carving techniques, such as the use of carving instruments, understanding of tooth morphology, and the ability to fabricate accurate occlusal surfaces, is essential for producing esthetic and functional restorations.
