COSMETIC DENTISTRY
This is a comprehensive program designed to teach and cover all the areas of aesthetic and restorative dentistry.
	Excellent esthetics is more than just form and function. It is about stretching the laws of nature in recreating something of extraordinary beauty, naturally. It is a combination of using the Art beyond the Science of Dentistry by using one or a combination of techniques. This program is designed to provide you with cutting edge skills for esthetic treatment planning, techniques. Seminars will be followed by hands on workshops.
