Dental prosthetist

A dental prosthetist is a form of dental technician who constructs removable oral prosthesis (dentures) direct to the patient. The major difference from a dental technician is that dental prosthetists do not typically work under the instruction of a dentist. Their duties are typically restricted to making just removable prosthesis, and referral to a dentist for other forms of dental work may be required.

They should not be confused with prosthodontists, who are qualified specialist dentists for making fixed or removable appliances for patients.
