Build your tooth preparation skills working on the latest phantom heads

 

Course Description

Our postgraduate dental course helps you develop your tooth preparation skills and is ideal if you want to:

•  Hone your skills and techniques for individual tooth preparation
•  Take on more significant restorative cases
•  Increase the amount of private work you undertake
•  Move into private practice
•  Develop your skills to reduce the risk of litigation
 
Our practical restorative one-year course is also a perfect "refresher" course if you feel that your knowledge and techniques have become a little dated. The field of restorative and cosmetic dentistry is advancing at a rapid rate in terms of techniques and the materials available. We continually update our one-year postgraduate dental courses to ensure that our delegates have a competitive edge in the market. 
 

Course Aims

The main aims of our practical restorative course are to:

•  Teach you how to put scientifically proven restorative techniques into practice to deliver great results
•  Give you confidence to take on more significant restorative cases
•  Help ease your transition into private practice
 
The Phantom Head Course builds on the theoretical, scientific and engineering principles learned on the Tipton Training One Year Restorative Course.
 

Course Structure

15% More Hands-on Practical Time

The course runs over 12 modules. 10 of these modules will be 100% practical course days.  The remaining 2 modules will be delivered via on-line lectures. With this new course structure in place, we are able to designate more time for practical sessions. Our Practical Restorative course days will be more interactive, giving you more opportunities to benefit from personal mentoring. By increasing the amount of practical hands-on work on the course, you will gain more experience which translates to improved techniques, skills and confidence.

Keynote lectures will be delivered as webinars (in the form of video, voice messaging, and power point) delivered via our on-line Tipton Training Dental Academy. Webinars will be made accessible two weeks prior to the practical course day, giving you chance to prepare ahead of the practical session.

The application of webinars to the new One Year Practical Restorative Course provides you with a broader learning experience and means that we don’t have to compromise on time spent on practicals.
