Description Colin McGuirk will be joining us 'virtually' to discuss the relative merits of posts in modern dentistry.

Amongst other things, we will cover assessment of the non-vital tooth, the importance of ferrule and how to approach the placement of posts in the clinical setting. There will be the opportunity for questions and plenty of clinical tips.
