Attendees Say...

"Every year this is one course I don't want to miss as I learn a lot of new materials and techniques relevant to general practice in one day. Presenters are very effective too."

Las Vegas Nevada May 2010

"This course was very good in that it covers a great deal of topics and products used in every-day dentistry. In each of the topics, I learned about other materials I could be using that would be better and cheaper than the one's I am using now. "
