This course is designed to reinforce the essential principles of endodontics and then teach the most current access, preparation and obturation methods both theoretically and with a hands on component.

You will have the opportunity to use a microscope to carry out these techniques if you wish.

• Endodontic access (includes anatomy) and negotiation
• Root canal length determination and how to optimise the accuracy of the apex locator
