This course will provide you with a hands-on-scaling experience designed to enhance scaling efficacy and ideal postural ergonomics to prevent work-related pain, musculoskeletal injuries, and disability. You will learn advanced scaling techniques and ideal postural ergonomics in every quadrant while working on a portable typodont-simulation unit using state-of-the-art, sharpen-free instruments. Ideal grasps, advanced scaling techniques, and optimal ergonomics will also be taught. Pre-registration is required.
Learning Objectives:
Learn advanced scaling techniques in all quadrants with sharpen-free technology instruments
Implement a neutral grasp with ideal extraoral and intraoral fulcrum rests for improved scaling outcomes
Understand reinforced instrumentation techniques to enhance lateral pressure, precision, and prevention
