“I thoroughly enjoyed it, very important topic that’s not always fully understood! All the speakers spoke about occlusion in a comprehensive manner that I understood.”
The secrets of successful, long-term restorations
A solid understanding of the principles of occlusion is crucial for the provision of successful, long-term restorative treatments for tooth wear and other conditions. This one-day symposium on the fundamentals of occlusion, first hosted in London and Edinburgh last year, aims to enhance your knowledge in this field. You will leave the day with a deeper knowledge of the basic principles of occlusion and an introduction to a range of postgraduate courses you may wish to consider undertaking in order to extend your knowledge further.
Symposium fee
We aim to set the fee at an affordable rate for early career dental professionals. The fees will be published soon.
Final year dental students may attend the symposium free of charge. Select the ‘Student’ option on the registration page.
Verifiable CPD: approx 6 hours
