ASC1 - Advanced Surgical Concepts-Grafting Course

protocols. Perform procedures on fresh-frozen cadavers to expand your knowledge and refine your surgical skills.
Advanced Diagnostic Concepts: CBCT
Advanced Cone Beam CT Interpretation
With the adoption of cone beam CT imaging the productivity and efficiency of a dental practice increases along with career satisfaction. However with such technology the dental practitioner is required to manage significantly more anatomical information than with 2D imaging. A more comprehensive understanding of interpreting CBCT anatomy and pathoses will be a significant aid in the clinician’s ability to review a CBCT volume for significant findings.
