IOWC - Interdentale Online World Congress
6 – 7 December 2023 - Live Stream from the DMG Dental Training Center Hamburg
Spotlight on: Aesthetic management of demarcated enamel opacities – Science based strategies for your daily practice.
Clinical management of aesthetically impairing vestibular lesions can be somewhat cumbersome in daily practice. Minimally invasive strategies to improve aesthetics are today’s intervention of choice. Due to the heterogeneity of the lesion’s origin, their clinical manifestations show big variation and thus need an individualized treatment plan.
If you find it challenging to manage these lesions in your daily practice, we are here to support you in daily clinical decision making.
The first edition of the Interdentale Online World Congress will take place from 6 – 7 December 2023, in a live stream broadcast from Hamburg.
Mark this day in your calendar and make sure, you don’t miss this unique event!
