Make your practice the best choice for patients who want life-changing dentistry.
The Over the Shoulder®: Full Arch Reconstruction course is a 2-day seminar providing dentists of all skill levels a predictable approach to full arch dentistry. Dentists will learn proven techniques as they observe a full arch being prepped and bonded. This course covers everything from occlusion management to material selection and post-operative treatment.
One of the most anticipated sections of this course is case presentation. Dr. Downs will show you how to avoid common mistakes and present cases that will have your patients saying “yes” to treatment.
