Course Overview
Proficiency in modern endodontics is what makes dental practices financially viable and dental practitioners hirable.
Why? Because most dental emergencies involve some form of endodontic treatment.
This course empowers dentists with evidence-based endodontic techniques - taught from a North American perspective.
On
day one of the workshop, Dr. Al Rayes will teach you how to navigate root canal procedures from start to finish. The why and how of successful treatment planning, conveying treatment options to patients and carrying out procedures with consistent results.
You will learn how to avoid mistakes while applying the latest endodontic advancements and focusing on adhering to North American clinical standards.
Day two and three are dedicated to participant chair time (#youtime). Each dentist will carry out four simulated (in mouth) root canals using the WaveOne system with hands-on guidance from Dr. Al Rayes and his team.
In this individualized course, Dr. Al Rayes will share his blueprint for efficient and holistic root canal treatment, born out of years of clinical practice in Canada.
You will leave this course with the confidence and know-how to immediately add this profitable procedure to your clinical repertoire - in a way that will benefit your practice and your patients.
