Refine your clinical skills and knowledge
14th Mar 2011
On offer to GDPs with at least three years of clinical experience, the Postgraduate Diploma in Endodontic Practice provides unparalleled hands-on training in endodontics over two years.
The first year, taught over 24 full days, provides academic, practical and clinical training delivered through seminars and lectures as well as skills training using extracted teeth in the Eastman's modern skills laboratories.
The second year of the course gives participants the opportunity to treat referred patients under supervision in the newly equipped surgeries at the UCL Eastman CPD site at 123 Gray's Inn Road, as well as attending Consultant new patient clinics at the main Eastman hospital site to further their diagnostic and treatment planning skills.
Designed for busy practitioners who wish to enhance their knowledge of and expertise in endodontics whilst continuing to work in practice, the course is divided into three components:
• Endodontic sciences
• Clinical endodontics
• Practical endodontics
The course provides intensive training for clinicians wishing to refine and improve their practical skills and the learning experience is supported by an interactive website where participants can read course material and take part in online discussions.
The programme has been designed to assist in meeting the competency requirements for 'Dentists with a Special Interest in Endodontics', and to give its successful participants the confidence and skills required to treat patients on referral.
The programme emphasises clinical excellence and provides a foundation upon which practitioners may consider progressing to further postgraduate qualifications such as a full time MSc in Endodontics or Specialist Training.
Closing date: Applications are encouraged by 27 May 2011. There will be a selection process consisting of an interview and aptitude tests; early application is advised.
