Would you like to improve the quality of the dental care you can offer your patients?

This course is a blended learning course. Lectures will be delivered online prior to the practical day, allowing a full day of cadaver-based surgical skills, putting into action the techniques previously learnt. The lectures and practical components will focus on dogs, but the fundamental principles are directly applicable to feline patients. The course fee includes a set of IM3 dental instruments to use during the practical and take home at the end of the course.

Why do this course?
By the end of the course you should feel able to approach dental cases in dogs with more confidence and enthusiasm.

Please note - This course consists of recorded webinars and a day of practical sessions. The recorded lectures allow you to learn at your own pace and can be listened to at a convenient time -  these are a prerequisite to attending the practical component
