A Course to Master Clinical Endodontics

Endondontics forms the foundation of a successful clinical practice. The training imparted to students during BDS is not adequate for dentists to practice quality endodontics with conference and achieve optimal clinical success. Understanding the need of the hour and to bridge this lacuna for general practitioners and fresh graduates; a well structured Three Module Clinical Hands – On Course has been designed.

Module I: Essential Endodontics:

This Four day module would equip a clinician with skills to perform quality endodontics therapy using both hand and rotary instrumentation in molar teeth.

Module II: Advanced Endodontics:

This three day module would enhance your clinical acumen with hands-on training in post and core placement (metal and fibre post systems), crown preparations and rotary retreatment of endodontic failures.

Module III : Microscope Training Course

This Two Day course is conducted in our state of the art exclusive microscope training institute having six Japanese phantom head simulators along with individual microscope for each participant. This module would train a participant in Ergonomics, Documentation, Parfocaling, IPD assessment, Microendodontic armamentarium, Instrument retrieval, Microscope enhanced retreatodontics and perforation management.

Course Highlights:

We have trained more than 1000 dentists from 25 countries apart from dentists from all over India. Each participant will perform more than 25 root canal exercises, assess more than 50 obturations with digital radiography and observe more than 200 access cavity preparations under magnification during this purely clinically oriented program. Our commitment for excellence in endodontic training is unwavering and the facilities offered are unmatched in India.
