DescriptionComplete dentures are difficult, but can be life changing for our patients. Join us in Bristol, with Neil Nathwani, Associate Professor at the Eastman Dental Institute, who will help us explore how we can improve our technique for the best possible outcome. We will be covering history taking, clinical examination, treatment planning, consent and crucially - how to manage our patients expectations.

We will also look at common pitfalls - and reasons for failure leading to patient dissatisfaction.
