A practical work session on injected composites will complete the scientific panel.
Transdisciplinary program
On the prosthesis and occlusodontics side, the scientific committee expert Emmanuel D’incau has developed a transdisciplinary program with the themes of removable prosthesis and implant-supported and tooth-supported prosthesis. Congress attendees will benefit from presentations on the technological and scientific advances in these treatments. A practical session supervised by experts will also be offered on the full mock-up technique.
