Max Bosshart has been active in further education and training for over 40 years and is well known within professional circles. Max Bosshart was a collaborator of Professor Gerber for 10 years, assisted him with the only book published by A. Gerber (Temporomandibular Joint Disorders – Diagnostics and Therapy) and is extremely familiar with the methodology. Before that, as a young technician, Max Bosshart worked in various laboratories, preferably in western Switzerland, but there only as a ceramist. It was the call of the industry which brought him to removable dentures, which he practiced holistically as a prosthodontist with a clinic and laboratory until 2017. He used the experience gained in the clinic to critically assess his own technical work in the laboratory. In the 1980s, he developed the mb cuvette–born out of necessity–and has continued its development over the last few years. With this in mind, he also developed a new and patented posterior tooth which provides improved chewing stability. Courses and lectures took him to universities, clinics and laboratories through almost all countries in Europe, North and South America, China, Japan and the Middle East.
