Performance evidence

followed 1 set of sequenced written instructions and the manufacturers’ instructions for preparing materials used in immediate dentures
used standard precautions and safe work practices to construct an immediate denture from at least one denture suitable for insertion in the mouth including 1 of each of the following: • maxillary or mandibular anterior tooth with at least one of the following: • flanged denture with bone re-contouring • flanged denture without bone re-contouring • open-faced denture • maxillary or mandibular posterior tooth with at least one of the following: • flanged denture with bone re-contouring • flanged denture without bone re-contouring • open-faced denture
critically evaluated the 1 immediate denture produced to meet technical laboratory and patient requirements.

Knowledge evidence

Australian/New Zealand Standards, workplace health and safety (WHS) policies, Dental Board of Australia guidelines on infection control, Commonwealth and State/Territory legislation and organisation policies relating to dental laboratory work
advantages of immediate dentures for the patient including: • accurate positioning of the artificial teeth • control of post-extraction haemorrhage • correct restoration of the vertical and horizontal relationships between maxilla and mandible • maintenance of appearance
fundamental oral anatomy, including: • dentition – arrangement of the teeth, naming and coding of teeth • structures of the oral cavity – hard and soft palate, lateral and posterior borders of the oral cavity, tongue and floor of the mouth • teeth form and function
clinical treatment procedures necessary to prepare the patient for immediate denture insertion, including: • where there are posterior teeth and no existing partial denture • where a partial denture is present
disadvantages of immediate dentures for the patient including: • the implications for the patient where appearance of anterior artificial teeth cannot be approved at try-in • the implications of rapid bone resorption following extraction
types of immediate replacement dentures and their advantages and disadvantages: • flanged denture without bone re-contouring • flanged denture with bone re-contouring • open-faced denture

Questions about assessing HLTDET006

What does an assessment tool for HLTDET006 need to cover?

To satisfy the Principles of Assessment and Rules of Evidence, an assessment for HLTDET006 needs to address all 24 unit components: 3 elements with 15 performance criteria, 3 performance evidence requirements, 6 knowledge evidence requirements, and the foundation skills. A coverage matrix mapping each question and task to these components is what an auditor looks for.

How does Auditori generate an assessment tool for HLTDET006?

Auditori pulls the current release of HLTDET006 from training.gov.au and generates a complete package: candidate assessment, assessor guide with model answers and observation criteria, and a coverage matrix mapping every component. A suitably qualified person then reviews and approves the draft in a built-in workflow — consistent with ASQA's guidance on AI use in VET — before export as branded PDF and editable Word.

Is the first assessment tool really free?

Yes. Every new account includes one free credit — enough to generate the complete assessment tool for HLTDET006 — with no card and no subscription required. After that it's pay-as-you-go per unit.

Can I check my existing HLTDET006 assessment instead of generating a new one?

Yes — upload your existing assessment or learner guide and Auditori maps it against every element, performance criterion, PE and KE of HLTDET006, showing exactly what's covered and what's missing. Mapping costs a quarter of a credit.
