The Digital Restorative Course

Led by Dr Douglas Watt this Course will bring you totally up to date with how digital applications will predictably improve your Diagnostic and Clinical Restorative Dentistry.

This course is INDEPENDENT of the digital system you are using and will apply to all brands. An immersive 2-day experience where Doug will share science, theory, demonstrations and practical hands-on to make you more informed and confident in digital restorative dentistry as well as highlighting just what can be achieved and what the science says about the world of digital dentistry

You will be shown methods of compiling your clinical findings into a treatment plan with ease as well as methods of presentation to your patients that will have them both informed and impressed. Digital workflows will be illustrated in a number of restorative techniques as well as the nuances no one tells you about when it comes to differences between digital and conventional procedures.

There is no other course that aims to blend Digital and Restorative Dentistry together with science based outcomes of non-biased studies.
