PROSTHODONTICS The Class of 1987 faces the future with hope and some apprehension but also with gratification. It has lived through four years of intensive study, from the first encounter with a cadaver to per- forming complete oral reconstruction for a dental cripple . It has taken each step in stride and, as a class, has emerged prepared for the new challenges that awaits them upon graduation. The class is to be congratulated for a job well done. Those of you who choose to enter into general practice will find that restorative dentistry will probably still occupy the greatest percentage of your time. This will be true for many years to come even with all the advances in preventive den- tistry. A broad biologic background coupled with training in various digital skills and techniques, not unlike those needed by the surgeon in medicine, is a necessity for performing this highly de- manding service. Here at Columbia you have been trained to meet a majority of the challenges you will be encountering in restorative dentistry. As evidenced by many of our graduates who have related to us (after residency training and or private practice), your dental education and clinical training are unsurpassed. Teeth, which not too long ago would have been condemned to extraction, with advances in materials, techniques and knowledge, are being retained for many years of useful service. Fewer and fewer patients are being forced to the com- pletely edentulous state. The demand is greater for fixed and removable partial denture service, and the newer osseointe- grated implants. Perhaps in time, with further advances in techniques and pre- ventive measures, there will be no need for anyone to ever reach the edentulous state. It is within the grasp of the gradu- ates of 1987 to achieve such a goal in their lifetime. It is our hope that the 1987 graduates of Columbia play a significant role in bringing this about. Remember the fact is, nothing comes; - at least nothing good. All has to be fetched. The Faculty of the Division of Prosth- odontics would like to congratulate you and extend its sincerest best wishes to you in your chosen profession. John J. Lucca, D.D.S. -•■• ' •AW- . ft w v -ua ! 27
