An introduction to non-metallic dental materials. The inherent characteristics, uses and limitations of dental laboratory materials are demonstrated and students practice the proper techniques of manipulating the materials in uncomplicated exercises. Familiarization with dental materials facilitates the development of psychomotor skills for subsequent dental laboratory technology courses. Students receive extensive training in infection control which conforms to OSHA, NADL, and ADA guidelines.
