COMPLETE DENTURES CDCL 5001


2012 COURSE POLICY
Course Prerequisites:
As stated in the current MCG Catalog, the student must have passed CDPR 5001 to enroll in
CDCL 5001. This course is a prerequisite for PROS 5901 and to treat clinic patients requiring
complete dentures.
Required Books:
1. The REQUIRED textbook is Textbook of Complete Dentures. Rahn A, Ivanhoe J,
Pummer K; 6th Edition, 2009.
2. CDCL 5001 Course Outline
Assigned reading that is indicated on the schedule is a requisite part of the course and will be
covered on the examinations. The CDCL 5001 Course Outline is organized by session with
Behavioral Objectives, some lecture outlines, and some additional reading materials from
articles. The student is responsible for learning the material to satisfy the listed Behavioral
Objectives for the session, not simply material covered in lecture. The quizzes and
examinations will be so oriented.
Attendance in lecture, clinic and laboratory is mandatory. The Associate Dean for Student
Affairs has the authority and may grant an immediate excused absence in the following
circumstances: 1) Personal illness or illness of a close family member when the attention of
the student is required. 2) Death of an immediate family member. 3) Personal appointment for
acute or preventive health care. A student missing a scheduled examination must document a
visit to Student Health or a private physician in order to qualify for a makeup examination.
Whenever possible, students should schedule preventive appointments at times which are
minimally disruptive to their class schedule. 4) Accident or other unforeseen circumstance
making it impossible for a student to attend a scheduled class.
Students should report their reason for requesting an excused absence to the Associate Dean
for Students on the day of the absence or as soon as possible.
The following may also constitute reasons for an excused absence, but are not emergencies
and they should be planned well in advance. The student has the responsibility to notify the
Course Director and the Associate Dean for Students and request and arrange in advance to
make up any work to be missed:
1.
2.
3.
4.

Serving off campus as a representative of the institution


Scheduled participation in an off-site rotation
Religious holiday
Other circumstances as may be approved by the Course Director

The Associate Dean for Students will maintain records of the excused absences until the
Student Academic Review Committee reviews grades at the end of the semester. (see
Schools Absence Policy approved 7/28/99 for complete text).
5

Attendance will be taken at the beginning of lecture and lab sessions. Students suspected of
abusing the Excused Absence policy will be reported to the Associate Dean for Students for
investigation.
All absences, including tardiness, not identified as excused absences will be considered
unexcused. An unexcused absence will be counted as a zero grade if an exam/quiz was
missed. No remediation will be offered for the unexcused missed class. Any quizzes missed
on the excused absence will be made up with an essay exam at the discretion of the Course
Director.
Students will be considered tardy if they are 2-10 minutes late for a lecture on those days in
which no quiz is given. Two tardies will count as an absence. Students will be considered
absent if they are more than 10 minutes late to any session.
For each unexcused absence from a lecture session. One percent (1.0%) will be deducted
from the final 64% of the Didactic portion of the course grade. One percent (1.0%) will also be
deducted from the final 36% of the Clinical/Lab grade for each unexcused lab or clinic
absence.
Students who have not completed a daily project/clinic must obtain permission from their
assigned instructor to leave the session before the scheduled completion time.
Students are required to watch the videos posted to the VISTA Course site prior to the
applicable clinic session in which the patient treatment is being performed. Quiz questions will
be selected from the videos. There will normally be three or four students assigned to each
patient being treated. The treatment procedures will be divided as equally as possible.
Students are required to wear safety goggles and to tie shoulder length hair back when
operating rotary instruments or working at the lathes.
Professional Appearance and Clinic Attire:
In accordance with Sec. 6-1 (p. 41) of the MCG Clinic Policy manual, all students will adhere to
the standards listed in the current manual and all published infection control guidelines

As shown above, this course is divided into the Didactic portion, comprising 64% of the final
grade, and the Clinical/Lab portion comprising 36% of the final grade. The student must pass
each portion of the course independently before the final average is computed. A grade of
either portion (below 70.00) will constitute failure of the course (U). It is the policy to carry all
grades to two decimal places, i.e. 82.55. No rounding up or down will be done.
A failing grade on the Station Examination is any grade below a 70.0. A retake examination
is compulsory. Remediation is offered during the course for failure of any course work. Any
student who fails station examination will be required to take the retake examination
after an appropriate practice/study period. The grade on the retake examination will be
averaged with the failing grade of the original examination. If the retake average results in a
failure, another retake may be offered at the discretion of the Course Director. The final date
for the retake exam is scheduled in the Course Outline.

COURSE FAILURE AND REMEDIATION POLICY:


The student in CDCL 5001 may receive a course grade of U in any of the following situations:
1. An average below 70.00 on the didactic portion, but an overall average above 80.00.
2. An average below 70.00 on the clinical & lab portion, but an overall average above
80.00
3. A overall average below 80.
A student receiving a U must re-register for the course during the following semester and will
be remediated with examinations following a faculty-directed independent self study course.
7

The grade on the new examinations will be averaged with the original examinations earned
during the regular course to arrive at the final grade for the course.
The original U will remain on the students transcript along with the grade achieved in the
remediation course.
After remediation and examination, if the student fails to achieve a final grade of 80 or above,
the student will need to take the course again during its normal curriculum rotation
In recognition of the clinical requirements of this course to provide a denture for each patient,
any student who refuses to perform the assigned clinical procedure as part of his/her team,
who exhibits willful disobedience, or commits gross negligence is subject to possible failure of
the clinical portion of the course, at the considered, reasonable discretion of the attending
faculty and Course Director.
Quizzes and Examinations:
Examinations may include multiple choice, true/false, short answer or fill in the blanks. Unless
otherwise announced, the short quiz will cover the lectures, clinics, videotapes and reading
material assigned for those sessions dating from the previous quiz to the current session. It
will not include the session material of the day of the quiz. Five working days will be allowed to
discuss grading errors made on exams. If a quiz is missed with an excused absence, the
student must make arrangements to take a make-up quiz within five working days after return
to class. Failure to make this arrangement within five days will result in a zero grade for that
quiz.
Unannounced quizzes may be given at the discretion of the Course Director. If given, the quiz
will be brief, 1 3 questions, at the beginning of the period. This type of quiz will cover
previous material or the reading assignment for the current session.
The final examination will be comprehensive. During written exams, quizzes, and practicals,
no notes, books, papers, etc. will be allowed near the students visual area in the room.
Presence of such materials or other aids to the exam will be considered evidence of cheating
and grade of zero will be given for that exam. Baseball caps, visors, etc. will not be worn
during quizzes or the Final Exam.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR YOUR NEW DENTURES


A.

B.

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM YOUR NEW DENTURES


1.

New dentures will feel strange and bulky in your mouth. Time will help you to
adapt. Most patients require at least three weeks to learn to use their dentures.
Some take 6 to 8 weeks to learn to chew well.

2.

You may feel excess saliva for the first few days to a week until the glands
become adjusted to the presence of the prostheses.

3.

Most dentures are only 25% to 30% as efficient as natural teeth. So dont expect
to chew as well with dentures as you did with your natural teeth. Dentures are
better than no teeth at all! Start with small bites of food that is easier to chew.
Increase your time of wearing the denture gradually.

4.

Speaking will feel awkward for awhile. Practice reading aloud and your speaking
ability will gradually improve and return to normal in 23 weeks.

5.

Make up your mind to learn to master the wearing of your dentures. This can only
be done by keeping the dentures in the mouth more than they are out of the
mouth.

ADJUSTMENTS
1.

Even the most carefully made dentures will move on the ridges and you may
develop sore spots or discomfort for varying periods of time in different places in
your mouth.

2.

Return to the student dentists for the adjustment appointments as scheduled. If


you develop soreness, do not become alarmed. Call your student dentist for an
appointment. If you must remove your dentures, put it back in your mouth 3 to 4
hours before your appointment time to allow sore spots to reappear.

3.

Most patients must make positive adjustments in their attitudes and habits in
order to wear dentures successfully.

4.

Looseness is normal, especially with the lower denture. There can be several
causes. If you learn to control your tongue and cheeks, you will do much better
with the lower denture that moves.
32

C.

D.

CLEANING
1.

Your dentures and your ridges in your mouth must be cleaned carefully after
each meal. Denture breath is the result of dirty dentures.

2.

Clean your dentures at least twice a day with a soft brush and a liquid detergent.
Use gentle brushing. Brush the dentures over a basin filled with water or over a
towel to prevent breakage if they fall.

3.

Clean your gums, palate and tongue with a soft toothbrush and toothpaste.

4.

Soak your dentures at night with a denture cleanser agent in a shallow container
with a lid. Pets, especially dogs, occasionally will chew on a denture left in an
uncovered container that they can smell and reach.

YOUR ORAL HEALTH


1.

Nature did not intend for people to wear dentures. You must learn to adjust and
to care for your mouth tissues. Most of the effort needed to adapt to the dentures
begins after the dentures are inserted.

2.

In addition to keeping your dentures very clean, you must rest the tissues at
least eight hours a day. Most patients find it convenient to leave the dentures out
every night.

3.

Your mouth is constantly changing. Dentures can become ill-fitting over a


prolonged period of time and may damage the ridges and supporting tissues
without you being aware of anything wrong. Therefore, it is best to return to the
dentist or dental school for a check-up at least once a year.
