[Team communication needed in treatment for denture prosthesis. 2) Opinion from dental technician's standpoint]

As for the team communication between clinical and technological sides in the denture treatment,a smooth cooperative teamwork must be established in its target treatment through individual adequate recognitions concerning the main points of sequential procedures from examination, diagnosis, therapeutic designing, impression taking and bite registration and then setting performed by a dentist on the clinical side as well as concerning the main points of technical procedures indirectly performed by a dental technician on the technological side in order to achieve the most improved preservation of remained tissues with an increased rate of functional restoration, being the final target of treatment. At present when an ultra-aged society is coming, the demand of denture treatment has been enhanced more and more. In response to the enhanced patient's demand, various modes of denture treatment have been introduced and the dental technology has advanced remarkably. In particular, a technical procedure by means of partial parallel milling representative of rigid support or of Konuskronen requires very complicated working processes. In addition, the elasticity is also required including such an occlusal construction as being harmonious with the jaw function or such tooth crown morphology as being prepared in consideration of periodontal tissues together with a lot of information from the clinical side required as well in the denture treatment. In this study, therefore, the dental technical procedures presently performed by referring to varied individual information are newly arranged and summarized so as that these complicated technical processes and working steps could be performed more easily and accurately.
