SAN DIEGO, Calif., USA: Whether you’re a microscope user or not, the Academy of Microscope Enhanced Dentistry 11th Annual Meeting and Scientific Session promises to open your eyes to new possibilities. Registration for the Nov. 16-17 event is available through the academy’s website, www.microscopedentistry.com. You don't need to be experienced in microscope-enhanced dentistry to attend and benefit from the session's programs.

Non-members and those who have never worked with a microscope are encouraged to attend to learn why microscopic dentistry is gaining so many advocates.

“Micro Vision: On the Cusp of Science & Precision,” is on a Friday and Saturday at the Hotel Del Coronado in San Diego. This year’s meeting represents a return to a live, onsite format, following the academy’s virtual-only meeting last year. However, the virtual option continues, too, with live online streaming video available as an alternative strategy to access the meeting. Some of the sessions will air live online from California. And sessions will be recorded for archived availability online. This gives onsite attendees the opportunity to view a session they may have missed or review sessions they were able to attend. Access to the recorded sessions is included as part of your registration. Copyright law restricts some of the sessions from being available online.

The scientific session features general sessions, vignettes, panel discussions/Q&As and hands-on courses with top clinicians and leaders sharing the latest science and techniques. All major sectors of dentistry are represented: restorative, endodontics, periodontics and implants.

The hands-on courses give attendees the opportunity to test-drive different microscopes while learning new procedures covering every dental specialty sector. Among the offerings:

Restorative courses:

  • Micro-Aesthetics I: The Art of Composites, with Jose Moura, DDS
  • Micro-Aesthetics II: The Art of Microlaminates — How to Master Ideal "Preparation," with Claudia Cia Worschech, DDS, PhD
