Fibrebond Reinforcement Dentistry for Perio, Endo and Bridging applications (MK020715)

AvailabilityCourse has taken place
SubjectOther
DescriptionDiscover how fibre technology can revolutionise treatment planning. Improvements in materials and bonding techniques are a key factor in providing the clinician and the patient with new minimally invasive choices. Conventional treatment options i.e. metal and ceramic may well prove too expensive for many patients in today’s difficult economic climate. Direct fibre reinforced bridges are a reliable and aesthetic way to replace missing teeth in a single visit whether temporarily, transitionally or for the long term. This is a good alternative for patients who can’t tolerate the conventional acrylic dentures. In a friendly and enthusiastic atmosphere you can experience this comprehensive and informative hands-on training session, which will be delivered in three modules throughout the day. Each module starts with an introductory lecture including clinical cases, illustrating the different techniques followed by a step-by-step demonstration. Finally, you will be given the opportunity to work with the fibres and complete each exercise under supervision.
