Course overview
Introduction
This 1 Day course will explore advanced instrumentation skills to find, remove and prevent residual stubborn embedded calculus using a step-by-step formula. You will learn how to approach a burnished deposit, what instrument to use first, to remove that deposit has evaded detection and removal despite repeated courses of non-surgical therapy. You will also learn about definite non-surgical treatment and why it is essential to reach an endpoint to achieve better clinical outcomes.
