A-Z of Restorative Dentistry (Module 2)

Course summary

The Direct Restoration of Anterior Teeth with Composite Resin.

Conventionally, discoloured teeth, diastemas, peg laterals and advanced wear cases are treated
with indirect restorations: crowns and veneers.

This approach is well based in the literature and over time, has proven highly successful. However, in some cases it may prove expensive in terms of overall cost, treatment times and most critically loss of tooth structure.

This module is designed to revise core knowledge of colour, layering and polishing and to build on this to allow the delegate to confidently approach more challenging anterior cases with direct resin in combination with simple occlusal rehabilitation and bleaching where indicated.

All Testimonials chevron_right

Throughly enjoy the course. The pre course webinars were very useful so we could focus on the practical aspects from the start. I learned a huge amount which I will be able to use to improve my patient care and gain more enjoyment from my work. I found Jason’s teaching style to be very relaxed giving me the confidence to ask questions. The learning support and feedback from Gordon and Ian was incredibly valuable. I will definitely be booking into more courses in the future. Feeling very motivated. Thank you all.

Victoria Boles, Bannockburn

The A-Z of Restorative Dentistry course with Jason Smithson provided a comprehensive update on restorative dentistry with high end outcomes in mind. Jason’s presentations were all evidence based and simultaneously managed to inspire and entertain. The course structure allowed in depth discussion on cases including our own patients. A major element of the course was hands on with clear demonstrations and support throughout.

Eddie Bateman

This is a real must-do-course! Well organised and expertly run.

Dr Alan Hirschowitz BDS-Wits

After our first hands-on exercise, the work I was able to do was better than any I8 have ever done before. On Monday when I got into the office, all that I had learned translated immediately. I was able to bring this new skill to my patients that day. Typically I do not see such an immediate impact on my practice, but this course was different. Thank you for making me a better dentist.

Phil Zelmanow

What a comprehensive course! I learned a lot from the in-depth theory in the webinars and the thorough hands on instruction from Jason himself where he imparted many useful tips. The new biomechanic knowledge has completely changed my thought processes before putting bur to tooth. I now want to do all Jason’s courses. Thank you.
