Comprehensive criteria and simple methods of assessment have been developed for the evaluation of complete dentures supplied by commercial dental laboratories. One hundred laboratories in England and Wales were selected by random sampling. A single identical complete denture case was sent from general practice addresses to each of the selected laboratories and each of the laboratory stages evaluated according to specific criteria. This paper is concerned only with the evaluation of the finished dentures. Half of the cases were treated as NHS cases and half as 'private' cases. The private cases were further subdivided into those where details were left to the laboratory and those where detailed instructions were given for all stages of denture construction. Wide variations were found in both the quality and cost of complete denture laboratory work. Evaluation of some key features of finished dentures suggests that the quality of work was superior for the private cases in which detailed instructions were given to the laboratory. Even for the private (specified) cases, however, important faults were found in a number of cases.
已制定出全面的标准和简单的评估方法，用于评估商业牙科实验室提供的全口义齿。通过随机抽样，从英格兰和威尔士挑选了100家实验室。将一个相同的全口义齿病例从普通诊所地址发送给每家选定的实验室，并根据特定标准对实验室的每个阶段进行评估。本文仅关注成品义齿的评估。一半病例被视为国民保健制度（NHS）病例，另一半被视为“私人”病例。“私人”病例进一步细分为将细节留给实验室的病例和对义齿制作的所有阶段都给出详细指示的病例。全口义齿实验室工作的质量和成本存在很大差异。对成品义齿一些关键特征的评估表明，对于向实验室给出详细指示的私人病例，工作质量更高。然而，即使对于私人（指定）病例，在许多病例中也发现了严重缺陷。
