Microscope Master Restorative
Learn from Experts in Restorations & Microscope Dentistry
3-Day Intensive Course Description
This 3-days intensive program is designed to offer you a complete working recipe for quick and efficient restorative procedures on anterior and posterior teeth using the magnification provided by the Dental Operating Microscope and dental loupes. The study program of the course is structured in short theoretical presentations followed by a practical part so that the participants have the opportunity to practice more the new working techniques.
This reference course is structured following the expertise accumulated by our lecturers for over 10 years in direct restorations and, respectively, clinical work under the Dental Operator Microscope. Because we earn our living from restorative dentistry and want to offer patients top quality treatments, we have developed over the years an efficient way of working in terms of working time, equipment, based on scientific evidence and clear and honest communication with patients.
The profile of our trainee is represented by the dentist who wants to put together the information that will allow him to carry out a clinical practice in a well-organized office, with assistance and work at 4 hands with the help of the operating microscope, to carry out his practice based on the rigor represented by the implementation of working protocols outlined around access and improving visibility.
He can be the dentist at the beginning of his career and who wants to specialize in restorative dentistry under the microscope, but also the dentist with clinical experience who has not yet worked with the magnification offered by the dental operating microscope.
This course is not an exhaustive recapitulation of the theoretical information acquired in faculty or widely spread in specialized books, so it does not aim to replace individual study and critical thinking. This course does not offer miracle solutions and does not replace the hours of clinical work necessary to acquire clinical experience and practical skills.
We consider that a course made on plastic teeth held in the hand or placed on a table does not always have the possibility to achieve all the educational objectives because it is far from the clinical reality. This is the reason why the philosophy of the Microscope Master course focuses on replicating the clinical situation as close as possible to reality during the training.

Testimonials
Am rămas foarte mulțumită de acest curs, a fost chiar peste așteptările mele. Am primit o mulțime de tips and tricks care chiar vor fi utile în lucrul de zi cu zi, iar cel mai important a fost ca punerea în practică a informației a constat 70%.
Echipa de profesori a fost superbă, toti foarte friendly si cu vibe bun! 🫶🏼 si organizarea la fel a fost la nivel, începând cu materiale si terminând cu pauzele de masa.
Ma întorc acasă inspirată si nerăbdătoare să încep să lucrez cu microscopul, mulțumesc echipa Mb Dental!
La finalul acestor 3 zile as vrea sa va multumesc pentru informatia pe care ati impartasit-o cu noi. Ati reusit sa punctati foarte multe probleme care apar in practica de zi cu zi si ma bucur ca am facut parte din aceasta experienta. Felicitari!
Course Design
The classes will start daily at 9 in the morning and will last until 5.30 in the afternoon, with a one-hour lunch break.
For certain exercises, participants will work in teams, dentist-assistant, both for learning the ergonomics of 4 handed dentistry and for understanding the difficulties of the dental assistant, for further training.
For other exercises you will work individually to maximize the efficiency of the working time available for each participant.
Day 1 – Microscope, ergonomics, indirect vision, working protocol – Stefan Jitaru & Marius Bud
The first day of the course will be dedicated to getting used to working under the microscope and in indirect vision, ergonomics, instrument exchange and coordination in the medical assistant team. All these rules apply regardless of the restorative treatment carried out and is the starting point for achieving good results, respecting a time limit and taking care of individual musculoskeletal health. For the course, each participant uses upright teeth on dental arches in patient simulators and training dental units. We consider that a course made on plastic teeth held in the hand or placed on a table does not always have the possibility to achieve all the educational objectives because it is far from the clinical reality. This is the reason why the philosophy of the Microscope Master course focuses on replicating the clinical situation as close as possible to reality even during the training by working on the teeth in their natural positions in the oral cavity of the mannequin and the head position similar to that of the patients.

Day 2 – Anteriors: Diastema Closure Restoration, Crown Fracture Restoration, Direct Veneer – Bora Korkut
The second day of the course is held by Dr. Bora Korkut, university senior lecturer at Marmara University in Istanbul. Having a long and rich clinical and didactic experience, Dr. Bora Korkut has selected the most important theoretical knowledge and clinical working protocols that you must master in order to successfully solve any direct aesthetic restoration in the anterior teeth area. You will practice together the restoration of a fourth class cavity using the technique of anatomical layering but also simplified layering using the Dental Operating Microscope. A special exercise will be dedicated to finishing, polishing and making the surface texture of the restoration. Each participant will complete the closure of a diastema, a clinical situation that we encounter quite frequently in the office. Because we want to be fast and predictable, we will learn and practice together how to prepare a transparent splint for direct veneer through the injection moulding technique, going through the work protocol step by step

Day 3 – Posteriors: Techniques and recipes for Restoring the contact points, the occlusal anatomy, class I and Class II - Marius Bud
The third day of the course will be dedicated to direct restorations in the posterior area and will be held by Dr. Marius Bud, senior lecturer at the Faculty of Dentistry in Cluj-Napoca, Romania. Dr. Marius Bud will practice with each participant the installation of several types of frequently used sectoral matrixes, the restoration of second-class cavities in order to apply the centripetal technique. The vision of the course is to practice several techniques because in order to be able to solve all cases, any dentist must master several techniques in order to be able to choose the most suitable one for each case. Thus, each participant will practice the centripetal technique based on the use of several types of matrices, several types of materials, several types of stratification, several techniques for modeling the occlusal morphology. In addition to the known techniques that you will perform under the microscope, you will also practice new techniques that are faster and easy to replicate for each patient, both for the restoration of first-class and second-class cavities.
