Course Description

Enhance your restorative dentistry skills with our One-to-One Posterior Composite Masterclass, an intensive mentorship programme designed to provide personalised, hands-on training with direct guidance from an experienced clinician.Unlike traditional group courses, this exclusive one-to-one mentorship allows you to learn at your own pace while receiving individual feedback tailored to your clinical experience and learning objectives.

Throughout the day, you will develop the knowledge and practical skills required to deliver predictable, aesthetic, and long-lasting posterior composite restorations. The course covers every stage of treatment—from diagnosis and treatment planning to adhesive protocols, cavity preparation, matrix placement, layering techniques, occlusal anatomy, finishing, and polishing.

Advanced techniques, including the Stamp Technique and Composite Onlays, will also be demonstrated and practised, helping you confidently manage more complex restorative cases.By the end of the mentorship, you will have gained practical experience, increased clinical confidence, and valuable tips that can be immediately applied in everyday practice.

Educational Aim

To provide clinicians with personalised one-to-one training that develops the knowledge, clinical skills, and confidence required to diagnose, plan, and deliver predictable posterior composite restorations using modern restorative techniques and evidence-based protocols.
