Overview of Assessment

You must show evidence of the ability to complete tasks outlined in elements and performance criteria of this unit, manage tasks and manage contingencies in the context of the job role. There must be evidence that you have completed the following tasks:

• performed the activities outlined in the performance criteria of this unit during a period of at least 240 hours of work in a clinical dental workplace environment

• followed procedures to ensure patient safety during procedures

• customised the form of the registration rims prior to recording the jaw relationships and occlusions for at least 4 different patients including:

- 2 complete maxillary and mandibular dentures

- and any 4 dentures of the following, 2 of which must be partial dentures:

o complete maxillary or mandibular denture opposing partial maxillary or mandibular denture

o opposing partial maxillary and mandibular dentures

o partial maxillary or mandibular denture opposing natural dentition

• established and recorded jaw relationships and occlusion for 4 different patients

• selected appropriate shade and mould for artificial teeth for 4 different patients.

 

To be deemed competent you must demonstrate an understanding of all aspects required of the competency, the underpinning knowledge and the skills application.

Regular attendance is required.  Assessment methods have been designed to measure your achievement of each competency in a flexible manner over multiple tasks.

   


Assessment Tasks

Full assessment briefs will be provided and can be found on Canvas. 

 

Assessment Task 1: Knowledge Assessment

This assessment task allows you to demonstrate your knowledge of taking clinical records and transferring records to the articulator with regard to their work from the clinic to the dental laboratory. 

For this assessment you are to to answer 23 questions which relate to a range of workplace scenarios regarding clinical records, articulating models and transferring records to the dental laboratory, including tooth selection. 

Feedback will be given at completion of 'assessment Task

 

Assessment Task 2: Facebow Transfer

This practical assessment that will allow you to demonstrate their ability to record a jaw relationship by taking a Face bow registration, on a patient, and the ability to transfer this information, accurately, to an articulator.

Feedback will be given at completion of 'assessment Task

 

Assessment Task 3: Practical Assessment

This is a Practical Assessment that will allow you to perform the activities outlined in the performance criteria of this unit during the period of at least 240 hours of work in a clinical dental workplace environment, as evidenced by their clinical log books.

You are to customize the form of the registration rims prior to recording the jaw relationships and occlusions for at least 4 different patients with requirements.

– You are to complete 2 patients for Mx and Md registration rim customized to form maxillary and mandibular dentures and to established and record the jaw relationships and occlusion.

-- You are to complete 2 patients for denture registrations, 1 of which must be a partial denture for each patient (full details in Assessment Task Instructions). 

You will also be required to selected appropriate shade and mould for artificial teeth for each patient.

 

Students enrolled in Vocational Education and Training qualifications are assessed for Competency. To be assessed as Competent means you have consistently demonstrated the required knowledge and skills at a standard expected in the workplace.  

To be assessed as Competent in this course, you will need to complete each assessment task to a satisfactory standard. You will receive feedback from the teacher at the conclusion of each assessment task.

Competency requirements and Grading:

To be deemed competent you must demonstrate an understanding of all elements of a competency. Assessment methods have been designed to measure achievement of each competency in a flexible manner over multiple tasks.

You will be advised that you are likely to be asked to personally demonstrate their assessment work to their teacher to ensure that the relevant competency standards are being met. Observation of You performing work is used to confirm competency.

 

Grade level Competency Level

CA Competency Achieved -The learner will be able to apply facts, rules and standard solutions to achieve a predictable task or solve a problem.

NYC Not Yet Competent -Although the learner exhibits access to a limited range of facts and rules, the learner has difficulty applying these facts and rules to a familiar task.

DNS: Did not submit assessment
