Advanced Restorative Procedures - Postgraduate Module

Program Overview

This advanced dental program focuses on enhancing practical skills through simulation-based learning. It covers advanced aesthetic techniques, periodontal surgery, molar endodontics, and managing missing teeth with a minimally invasive approach. Students engage in a combination of distance learning and two residential courses, culminating in assessments that evaluate their abilities in periodontics, endodontics, and simulations.
