A 3-day combined course at the renowned Degidi Dental Clinic on two of today’s hottest topics: the WeldOne concept and the Conometry Concept. Participant will learn through theory presentations and numerous practical sessions how to create both an electrically welded prosthesis and a conometric prosthesis. Do not miss out on this unique opportunity to do both courses together.
