Expand Your Mind: Continuing Your Dental Education | New York, NY

Now that we have generally moved past the age of COVID-19, there is a newfound desire to live life to the fullest and many people have begun to rethink their existence. For many this begins with their career. So many people have said goodbye to their jobs, in search of a more fulfilling existence. Some find a different job; others take a different route – they go back to school.

Deciding to go back to school is a big decision for anyone, but for those of us in the dental field, going back to school is almost a given. After all, technology is constantly changing and improving the way we do things.

Continuing dental education is extremely important for all in the dental field. As a dental professional you should be keeping up with the major changes happening in the industry every day. The world of dentistry is growing extremely fast and will continue to grow over time, making it clear why it’s so important to continue your dental education.

With the technology advancing in such little time now, it’s essential for everyone in the dental field to stay on top of the game. Ongoing training for dental professionals is so important that even most states require that all dentists and hygienists must complete a specific amount of dental continuation education classes each year in order to remained licensed in the field.

Not only is it beneficial to you to continue your dental education, but to your patients as well. Continuing your dental education allows you to provide the best care possible while having access to the last preventative, diagnostic and treatment methods.

The institute also houses NYUCD’S continuing education program, which annually attracts more than 4,000 dentists from more than 20 countries, making it perhaps the most far reaching program of its kind in the world.

Aesthetic Advantage Hands-On Courses: Level One

ThinkstockPhotos-464323669Aesthetic Advantage offers a variety of dental continuing courses, including hands-on dental courses. The professionals of Aesthetic Advantage list the following advantage of hands-on dental courses:

  • Individuals who learn in a hands-on learning environment are more likely to remember the material better.
  • Studies show that hands on courses motivate individual to actively engage in their learning and improve their skills.
  • Hands on dental courses allow individuals to discuss any misconceptions they have on the material, providing people with the right guidance in order to be successful in all fields of dentistry.

The Rosenthal Aesthetic hands on course is a class designed to give you day to day scenarios in which you will be dealing with aesthetic procedures as a dentist. This course is designed to give you hands on interaction with whomever you’d like to bring along as your patient. If you don’t want to bring a patient, you don’t have to and you only have to pay half of the tuition. There are two other levels that follow this course and it is encouraged that you take all three of them.

On our first day you will sit in on lectures on prep techniques, smile design principles, cementation techniques, patient management treatment planning, lab communication for a more predictable result, material selection and more. You may bring a patient and prep a live case or you will be able to audit (observe over the shoulder) up to 10-15 cases being prepped and inserted at this course, as well on clinic day. You will be able to return one month later to sit in on lectures regarding cementation, occlusion, advanced cases and marketing, then go to clinic the following day to observe 10-15 cases being inserted.

Aesthetic Advantage emphasizes the importance of hands on dental courses because of the many advantages they offer compared to a traditional classroom setting. If you are looking for a way to further your knowledge and expertise regarding dental education call Aesthetic Advantage today.
