Considering the plain truth that “knife cuts out the pain and pathology”, the surgical speciality in dentistry has also evolved to great heights in this new era. What makes OMFS even more exciting is because of the fact that it deals with the surgical procedures in one of the complex anatomical regions of the human body. It is even more challenging, as it deals in the most esthetic zone of the body. This module on minor oral surgery for general practitioners will go through a wide range of topics, that are required for a professional in their day to day practice. Punctuating the course will be live surgeries, surgical videos, practical tips and latest techniques with relevant literature. The topics chosen will be comprehensive to exactly cater the professionals, so that they can improve their skills and use them more effectively in their practice.
All participants will get a chance to assist and / or experience the cases operated by course conductors subject to the availability of cases.
