This schedule is tentative and will vary depending on the patient and treatment type. Sufficient leeway is built into the course to provide flexibility in the schedule if one or two sessions cannot be attended. Some procedures can be done in the participants office instead of bringing the patient to the course. In that case, records of crucial steps (Casts, impressions, Interocclusal records, slides or photos, etc) will be brought to the session so the instructors can have input into the treatment as it progresses. The participant should bring a chairside assistant to assist at the preparation and impression appointments. If that is not feasible we may be able to talk some of our assistants into helping if you're willing to remunerate them for coming in during their off hours.
