Dr. Turbyfill graduated from the University of
Louisville in 1959. He studied with Dr. Earl Pound for many years and this relationship is
responsible for his keen interest in prosthodontics. Dr. Turbyfill maintains a private
practice in West Columbia, South Carolina. He teaches dentists the principle of complete
dentures and partials in demonstration and lecture seminars.

schools (University of Indiana, University of Alabama, Medical College of Georgia School

Carolina School of Dentistry, Case Western Reserve University, Tufts University), study
