Vertex-Dental Academy

The Vertex-Dental Academy is acquiring increasing renown as

an institute for education and further training, both nationally

and internationally. Given that the process of making a denture

consists of various essential parts, it is important that each

aspect receives the attention it deserves. After all, the longer

the chain of procedures within a process, the more likely

unexpected problems become.

Courses One of the principles in the Vertex-Dental Academy is the emphasis

on fixed procedures. These are the initial requirements for processing

high-quality materials in the

denture department of a dental

laboratory. Our courses therefore

stress the how and why of stable

polymerisation, keeping them

malleable longer and keeping

them capable of being casted for

a longer period of time.

Master classes At first a number of processes which take place in the denture

department of a dental laboratory have been defined. These processes

have been lead to the following practical master class courses:

Vertex™ ThermoSens To transfer a wax set-up by using a pouring type of acrylic Soft base High Impact acrylic in implant work Using acrylic on frames Authentic pressing technique Set-up Complete Rebasing & repairing including Vertex™ TCA

Vertex-Dental is continuously working on innovations on

materials. One of the latest materials that we have developed is

Vertex™ ThermoSens. This material is a polyamide and can be

used e.g. on patients with a

monomer allergy. It can be

used for partial dentures or for

full dentures. The combinations

are numerous. During this

course you will make a partial

denture and will learn all the

tricks and possibilities.

Why Vertex™

ThermoSens?

Monomer free / non allergic Shrinkage < 1% Unbreakable characteristics Easy to polish and finish No dangerous goods For all type of dentures

Course topics The course covers the following steps: preparing the teeth, setting

up the partial denture, embedding the denture, cleaning the model

and the teeth and finally inject. The following steps are also covered,

finishing and polishing.

Purpose We will demonstrate that this material can be a welcome addition to

your current work. If implemented properly you will be able to see

all the benefits of Vertex™ ThermoSens.

Meant for This course is designed for the denture department, the responsible

dental technicians and all denturist.


24

To transfer a wax set-up by using a pouring type of acrylic

Milestones in dental technology are few and far between, but

one thing is certain: casting prostheses was revolutionary and is

still developing. More and more people are beginning to see the

advantages of the system. The Vertex™ casting system produces

a well fitting denture without bite elevation, with a perfect,

aesthetically pleasing 1 to 1 transfer. The method is clean, fast and

applicable in most situations. During this course, you will learn how

to convert both complete and partial dentures from wax to acrylic.

Course topics The course covers the following steps: fixating and checking the wax

denture on the plaster model, correct model positioning, filling the

Vertex™ Castaflask, removing the wax denture, cutting the channels

and repositioning the elements. The following key steps are also

covered: correct separation, casting with and processing Vertex™

Castavaria. After polymerisation, the denture is

finished, polished and prepared for

shipment. All steps that may be

part of this process will be

examined briefly, thoroughly and

above all, clearly. This course will

also cover individual oral pigmentation

with Vertex™ Acrylic Stain.

Purpose With this course, Vertex™ wants to demonstrate the significant

time savings that can be achieved with this technique. We will also

show that it is a clean, simple and accurate way of manufacturing

dentures. If implemented properly, this can lead to significant cost

savings for a laboratory. After following this course, you will be able

to prepare 20 complete dental prostheses (40 flasks) a day.




25

Soft base

It is becoming an increasingly common scenario: patients with

pain complaints are advised to use a soft base to give the jaw

some rest. In response to this development, Vertex-Dental

Academy developed a course covering the following method:

a soft base under a new denture. This method significantly

improves the comfort of the denture for the patient.

Course topics The course covers the following steps: fixating and checking the wax

denture on the plaster model, applying Vertex™ Putty to protect the

tooth crowns, correct separation, various methods for embedding the

denture, pressing and

application of a uniform soft

base on the denture. After

polymerisation, bedding,

finishing, polishing and

disinfecting the denture will

be covered. Each step is

crucial, and will be covered in

a brief, concise manner during

the course.

Purpose To create a denture composed of various materials, each with its own

specific demands – from mixing to processing.


dental technicians and all denturists.


26

High Impact acrylic in implant work

Implant technology is no longer new and is being applied more

and more frequently. One result of this development is the

production of combined dentures, the denture mounted on

implants or on a rail. Forces in the mouth are large and the chain

is only as strong as the weakest link. Fracture is a logical

consequence of the enormous

forces acting on a cap denture.

To address this annoying but

well-known and logical

situation, Vertex-Dental

developed the high-impact

material Vertex™ Implacryl.

Course topics The course covers the following steps: fixation and checking of

the wax denture on a rail or implant model, blocking a rail and/or

matrices, embedding the denture, protecting the teeth with Vertex™

Putty, correct separation and correct pressing with Vertex™ Implacryl.

After polymerisation, the denture is finished, polished and prepared

for shipment. The steps necessary to create an acrylic denture from a

wax denture will be covered clearly and concisely.

Purpose To prevent or minimise breakage and similar problems caused by the

lack of space that occurs in combined dentures.




27

Using acrylics on frames

Besides full and partial dentures, frame dentures are also

common. Every laboratory is different, so the acrylic working

aspect of this course is implemented in a number of different

ways. Using the Vertex™ Castapress allows the acrylic

component to be casted. This acrylic is suitable for identical

transfers that remain colour stable in the long term.

Course topics During the course, a frame is processed in various ways. On one

frame, the acrylic parts will be done with Putty locks. On another

frame denture, gel will be used. The following topics will be covered

for the first technique: 1 to 1 application of the Vertex™ Putty on the

wax model, replacing the elements in the Putty, separating, casting

and processing Vertex™ Castapress. For the second technique, the

following topics will be examined: fixating and checking the wax

denture on the plaster model, correct model positioning, filling the

Vertex™ Castaflask, removing the wax denture, cutting the channels

and repositioning the elements. The following key steps are also

covered: correct separation, casting with and processing Vertex™

Castapress. After polymerisation, the

denture is finished, polished and

prepared for shipment. All steps that

may be part of this process will be

examined briefly, thoroughly and

above all, clearly. This course will also

cover individual oral pigmentation

with Vertex™ Acrylic Stain.

Purpose To learn how to make a frame denture in different ways, with a

controlled, predictable end result.




28

Authentic pressing technique

The pressing technique has been a gold standard in the field

for years and remains so to this day. However, this traditional

technique still presents processing problems when it comes to

manufacturing both complete and partial dentures. At Vertex-

Dental, we see this course as a place to exchange ideas and

share knowledge, potentially leading to new insights or more

efficient methods.

Course topics The course covers the following steps: fixating the wax model on

the plaster model, protecting the tooth crown with Vertex™ Putty,

separation, various moulding methods, pressing with Vertex™

Rapid Simplified, polymerisation, finishing and polishing. Individual

oral pigmentation with Vertex™

Acrylic Stain is also covered

during the course. The reason

we do things a certain way

and alternative methods are

clearly explained for each

step. All known issues and

solutions that may present

themselves will be

addressed.

Purpose To press a denture with a predictable end result and identify and

eliminate any problems that may arise in the future.




29

Set-up complete

Double cross-linked and a high molecular weight are several well-

known characteristics of Vertex™ Quint. To save time and to be

more efficient, Vertex-Dental Academy has made a course about

set-up technique with Vertex™ Quint teeth. During the course a

simple but full set-up will be made with this new line of teeth.

Course topics Plaster model mastery (model analysis), creating base plates, wax

setups, modelling, model finishing, modifying the Quint elements,

occlusion and articulation, casting or pressing the denture, finishing

the denture, remounting the denture, checking occlusion and

articulation, grinding Vertex™ Quint elements.

Purpose To introduce Vertex™ Quint elements by creating a denture using

Vertex™ products, starting with the foundations (the base plate) and

finishing with a completed, polished denture.

Meant for The course is primarily designed for people in the denture

department who are starting mounting dentures.


30

Rebasing & repairing including Vertex™ TCA

Repairing and rebasing are daily issues for every laboratory.

Both must be done in a fast and precise way. Due to time

pressure it is important that those actions are done accurate

so the end result is according the wishes of the technician and

patient.

Course topics During the course several

repair and rebase acrylics

are used according several

techniques. Extensions,

placing an element, repair

a fracture and rebasing a

denture is part of this

course. Besides the

conventional repairing

acrylic, acrylics with a fast

setting will also be used.

Purpose The purpose is to repair a fracture, make an extension and rebase a

denture with various types of acrylic. Each of those acrylics has their

own characteristics from mixing till working.
