The course is designed to satisfy requirements for dentists with a special interest in restorative/fixed and removable prosthodontics or Level II practitioner status.
The practical hands-on part of the course has been separated from this online course for admin purposes, but it goes with this online course - please see Advanced Course in Restorative and Aesthetic Dentistry (Level II) - hands-on 2016/17.
