Dental Prosthesis Technology
Haliç Campus, Turkey
Overview
Dental Prosthetics Technology Program is a specialized two-year associate degree that trains skilled technicians in the design, production, and repair of dental prostheses and appliances. This program combines elements of health sciences, engineering, and fine craftsmanship to prepare students for vital roles in supporting dental professionals and improving patients' oral health and quality of life.
The curriculum includes both theoretical and practical courses covering dental anatomy, oral and maxillofacial physiology, dental materials science, fixed and removable prostheses, orthodontic appliances, implant-supported prosthetics, and digital dental technologies such as CAD/CAM systems. Students also study hygiene and sterilization techniques, laboratory safety, and dental ethics.
Hands-on practice is central to the program. Students work in fully equipped dental laboratories where they learn to craft crowns, bridges, dentures, and other oral devices using traditional techniques and modern technologies. They gain valuable experience in model preparation, wax modeling, ceramic layering, and precision finishing.
Medipol University provides students with access to state-of-the-art labs, experienced faculty, and clinical partnerships that allow them to observe and collaborate with dental practitioners. Internships in dental laboratories and clinics further enhance their practical skills and job readiness.
Graduates are qualified to work as dental prosthetic technicians in public and private dental labs, hospitals, dental clinics, and prosthetic manufacturing companies. They can also open their own licensed laboratories or pursue further education in dentistry or dental technology. These professionals play a key role in restoring patients' dental function and aesthetics, contributing directly to their health and confidence.
