Description: In this Masterclass, we will have a full day of learning about Lasers, including the physics behind the laser applications, how the lasers can interact with the tissue. We will view several lasers on the market and help attendees to find the laser that will work best for them in their practice. We will also make sure all the students understand the importance of Laser Safety and the protocols needed.

We will view videos and case studies to ensure that techniques are ready for use in their clinical practice. All of this will be followed by an extensive hands-on demonstration, where each attendee will be able to try all the techniques to ensure clinical excellence.

We will end our fast paced, fun day of learning by helping you to prepare for the Academy of Laser Dentistry exam by completing a mock exam and have instructions and information on how to take the online exam after the comprehensive laser course.
