We invite you to a practical training on endodontic retreatment at the fully equipped endodontic center of Enrico Cassai in Italy!

You will experience theory, workshops, and live operation demonstrations.

During the training, you will learn protocols for removal of posts and root canal filling materials (screwed, fiber, cast posts, paste, cements, gutta-percha, silver cones, Thermafil), as well as protocols for perforation treatment and closure of open apex using MTA.

In the workshop, you will practice these techniques on specially prepared teeth. Additionally, you will have the opportunity to observe Enrico Cassai working on patients' oral cavities during live operation demonstrations.
