DAY 2

09.00-10.30 CET

Michael SOLOMONOV

Biological clock in endodontics: time is money

– Time is money…How quick and efficiently can we work and how can technologies or will they try to change the established time frame?

– If procedure fails, should the dentist stop or persevere and how do the internal biological clocks help or hinder us?

– What follow up periods will give us a true assessment of our work and how will this be related to treatment methods?

– What can elongate our professional life?

My lecture at the intersection of knowledge and philosophy. Analytics and personal experience. Hundreds of students and thousands of questions... you will think and this is very important.

10.30-11.00 CET

Coffee break

11.00-12.30 CET
