SubjectRestorative dentistry
DescriptionThis course, delivered over three consecutive days, is a great opportunity to get to grips with modern Endodontics and the restoration of root filled teeth. Jon Cowie and his team will lead you through pre- assessment, access, canal preparation, irrigation, obturation and beyond. There will be plenty of hands on practice, including post cementation and onlay preparation. The small numbers (no more than twelve dentists) will give some flexibility to ensure your own learning needs are met. Please see attached document for course content. If you have any questions about this course, please email lucysilk@hee.nhs.uk
Additional information

All dentists are very welcome.  This course may be especially useful for those of us lacking confidence in endodontics, or returning to general practice.  This course is suitable for PVLE candidates.

To keep costs to a minimum, participants will need to provide their own lunch.  There are many sandwich shops and cafes in close proximity to the Dental Hospital, as well as a cafeteria within the building.  You are welcome to bring your own lunch if you prefer.  Tea and Coffee will be available throughout the course.

If you require overnight accommodation, The Premier Inn (Haymarket) Hotel, is just a few minutes walk from The Dental Hospital.
