Today’s restorative dentist faces an apparent increase in patients exhibiting toothwear that may result in shortened teeth, making crowning these teeth problematic. In addition, it is evident that patients are becoming more aware of the importance of a pleasing smile.

This course explores crown lengthening as one way in which the restorative dentist can address both clinical demands and provides an opportunity for hands-on practice.

There will be a hands-on crown lengthening practical session, with a chance to practice both newer methods of bone removal with the Piezosurgery units as well as some more traditional methods.

This course meets the General Dental Council’s educational criteria for verifiable CPD and 6.5 hours of verifiable CPD points will be awarded.
