Comprehensive Endodontics
9th, 10th & 11th July
No confidence in endodontics or molar endodontics? Unable to locate the canal? Unsure if there is an extra canal? Are you worried when it comes to molar endo? Worried of a fractured file, perforation or other complications without knowing how to manage it? Unsure of obturation and its long-term success? Problems in access cavity? Cannot understand the art and science of negotiating simple and complex root canal anatomy? Do u want to train on predictable endodontic outcome and long-term endodontic success. Then this course is for you. This intensive and interactive course is designed for the clinician who wishes to perform endodontic treatments with predictable clinical success and without unduecomplications. Bio-minimalism in access design, canal preparation and debridement procedures, innovations in obturation materials, pulpal regenerative therapies, treatment of trauma and idiopathic resorption, as well as passive rehabilitation technologies are key factors of the course. The technical aspects of this endodontic course are covered by hands-on and with real teeth. A variety of instruments and techniques are discussed and demonstrated with videography using the dental microscope. Find the MB2’s,cracks in teeth and take greater satisfaction in your work.
