PRIMUM NON NOCERE

In order to become a more confident surgeon, you will learn different techniques and approaches from one of the most experienced names in this field, Dr Mustafa Sancar Ataç. In addition to standard procedures, tips and tricks for dealing with complications will be shared by our teachers throughout the course.

PRACTICAL & THEORETICAL SESSIONS

You will be thought theoretically in the first day of the course.  The second day is full of hands-on practice in the anatomy lab. After a very short theoretical introduction of the surgical procedure by the lecturers you can monitor the live surgery on the flat screen close to you. You accompany each detail in “real-time”, simulating a close 1:1 reality on your “patient”.

After the teaching and the instruction, you will perform the surgical training on the fresh skull, guided by us, step by step. Two doctors are assigned to one fresh (not embalmed) skull, and a well-trained team is always around you to help and assist.


ENGLISH TRANSLATION IS AVAILABLE

The course is delivered in Turkish and translated into English by our interpreter simultaneously. We work with London-based translators who are very experienced in dentistry courses.
