Confident Smile Makeover Masterclass

IAS Academy have partnered with Optident to deliver ortho restorative education based on successful aligner therapy aimed at General Dental Practitioners.  The Confident Smile Makeover allows you to combine cosmetic treatments to achieve a stunning smile in one treatment process.

Dr Tif Qureshi qualified from Kings College London in 1992. He is a Past President of the British Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry. Tif is founder and a clinical director of IAS Academy, an international faculty that provides mentored education for general dentists on a pathway from appropriate simple to comprehensive orthodontics. Tif has a special interest in simple orthodontics and truly minimally invasive dentistry. An experienced teacher in the Dahl concept, Tif shows how this technique is used to plan tooth alignment and minimise invasive dentistry in the development of a beautiful smile.

The ABB course encompasses two courses in one; day one is the Removable Appliances Course (covering Reveal Clear Aligners) and day two is the Ortho Restorative course (covering White Dental Beauty Whitening gels & White Dental Beauty CompoSite).

This 2-day course gives dentists the confidence to deliver a complete solution to their patients. By the end of these two days, attendees will be able to handle simple to moderate alignment cases as well as everything needed to finish cases post-orthodontics and be able to ensure long-term stability and function.

Included is access to the mentoring platform, allowing clinicians to post their first 3 cases for Suitability Checks, Treatment Plan Discussions and Full Case Support.
