Anatomy background for BPS-SEMCD dentures

This album, the brainchild of the authors, Dr. Balázs Szabó, senior lecturer (SZTE-FOK) and József Rátonyi (IndividuArt Studio), dental technician, creates a new genre: practical prosthetic anatomy. It deals with the anatomical areas, formulas and interrelationships always from the point of view of the given goal, in this case the production of removable complete dentures. It includes elements from all three classical anatomical sciences, i.e. descriptive, regional, but also clinical anatomy. The book attempts to mention the results of recent research in Europe, Japan and the United States, which are laying the foundations for new methods of making removable dentures.

As the album specifically examines the edentulous human masticatory apparatus from the point of view of the fabrication of removable disc prostheses, the notations and descriptions are not exhaustive! An understanding of the work assumes the reader has a sound knowledge of anatomy, both descriptive and clinical.

The motto of the publication is a well-known saying of Dr. Géza Prágai in academic circles:
„He who can see the muscles and bones beneath the mucous membrane can make a good den-ture.”
