Virtual Hands-On Training Course on Access

Virtual Hands-On Training Course on Access

Welcome to the revolution of endodontic education.

What is Virtual Hands-On Training?

Virtual Hands-On Training (VHOT) is a virtual hands-on course that includes a complete armementarium kit. VHOT allows you to learn how to perform a particular endodontic procedure at your pace, on your time, in your operatory, and with your assistant. If you master an exercise quickly with ease, you can move on to the next exercise whenever you choose; if you struggle through an exercise, you can practice as many times and as often as you'd like.

Virtual Hands-On Training - The Access Course

Errors tend to accumulate during procedures. That is why early procedural errors are the most devastating to the procedural outcome. Thus, access cavity design and execution can make or break even the simplest root canal treatment.

In this VHOT course on Access, you will learn how to design and execute perfect, minimally invasive access cavities in any tooth, every single time.

You will learn:

  • Convenient and conservative outline forms for anterior, premolar, and molar access cavities 
  • How to identify tools that will empower you to cut predictable entry paths to root canal systems 
  • Occlusal and axial landmarks that you can depend on as your "north star" to navigate toward the pulp chamber
  • Decision trees that minimize time and danger when faced with calcified root canal systems

The VHOT - Access kit includes:

  • 18 TrueTooth 3D-printed training replicas with multiple anatomical variants in transparent and opaque teeth
  • Instruments to perform the indicated exercises: straight DG-16 endo explorer; bent DG-16 endo explorer; burs; bur clip; rotary files; irrigator; and irrigator tips
  • Textbook
