Advanced Dentistry’s Premier Global Education Platform
Dentanext Media is the World’s Premier Platform for Advanced Dentistry Education with Live-Streaming and On-Demand Continuing-Education Modules promoting engagement for users through demonstration cases and live surgeries.
10-Module Webinar Series Including 3 Live Broadcast Surgical Events!
This year long certificate program features 10 comprehensive modules taught via live webinars by leading experts in ceramic dentistry, covering all important aspects of zirconia implant practice, including: diagnosis and treatment planning, surgical and final restorative stages of zirconia implant cases, surgical therapies and implant placement in selected cases, prosthetic therapies, long-term maintenance, prevention and management of implant complications, and the science and long-term history of zirconia implants.
This interactive, one-of-a-kind educational program commences in January 2020 andconcludes in December 2020. Each hour and a half session takes place on the last Friday of each month, excluding July and August. Several sessions will include live surgical demonstrations, and each webinar will conclude with a group discussion and Q&A period.
