No matter how good you are at delivering local anaesthesia, the chances are that your patients will still be very fearful of the procedure. Well, there's a way round it! The Wand is a computer controlled anaesthetic delivery system that pushes the anaesthetic solution of your choice through a needle. The rate and pressure of delivery allows you to get your anaesthetic to where it is needed without much of the traditional discomfort/pain that is associated with using a syringe.
Dental Sky Academy are launching eCPD courses, lead by Dr Richard Charon and Dr Mike Gow, aimed at both existing and new users of The Wand. The 6-hour course will cover clinical applications and will review techniques versus a traditional syringe. You will experience hands-on use of The Wand, including clinical tips and maintenance advice. There will be no commitment to purchase a unit on the day. Each delegate will receive a free box of Wand handpieces worth £125 + VAT, which will offset most of the course fee of £135 + VAT. The course provides delegates with 6 hours of eCPD.
For tickets and more information call 0800 294 4700 or events@dentalsky.com.
