Modul 4 – Root Canal Therapy
12.november - 13.novemberPåmeldingsfrist
19.oktober 2026This module is all about endodontic treatment. We will explain the theory behind access holes, cleaning, shaping and obturation of the pulpal chamber.
There are a lot of material and a lot of instruments to learn about, so the module will be a nice mixture between theory and practical training.
We want participants to understand the properties of different filling materials and to become familiar with the different techniques of cleaning, shaping and obturating the canal.
The module starts with understanding the theory behind accomplishing successful root canal therapies, but even more important, we have time to practice the actual work with the burrs, files and materials.
We will start with working on single rooted teeth such as the canines and incisors.
