You have graduated, but you completed under ten crowns in school, and now your employer wants you to finish each patient in under 1 hour! How can you survive in this fast-paced corporate environment? You refuse to lower your quality, but it’s a sink-or-swim situation! This course provides new or returning dentists with a practical and efficient approach to successful ceramic crowns. Dr. Stevenson will demonstrate his 5-minute prep technique which would score a 5 out of 5 in front of any dental school or licensing exam grading panel. His 36 years of clinical and teaching experience will be shared with openness and approachability in this intensive hands-on course. Dr. Stevenson will not only demo numerous crown preps live for the class but will insure each participant is able to perform the technique with confidence. Each participant will prepare at least six teeth during the course on a typodont on a dental manikin simulation unit.
We supply the typodonts, handpieces, instruments, and burs! You just need to bring your open mind, loupes, and headlight!
