Excel at reporting CBCT scans

Excel and become competent in the justification, optimisation and reporting of CBCT scans for treatment planning of both endodontic and dental implant cases. 

A unique style course with online content, reporting assignments, in-person training and online expert-led reflective review one month after the in-person training.  

The in-person training will allow those that focus on endodontics to focus on endodontics and the implant focused dentist will spend their time focused on implants.  A truly bespoke course like no other.

This is a fully compliant, Level 2 CBCT course
