Welcome to the 2009 joint Melbourne Dental School/ADAVB Continuing Professional Development program
A Message from the Director
Dear Colleagues,
Welcome to the 2009 Continuing Professional Development program, the Melbourne Dental School has several exciting new courses for 2009 and for the first time the School is offering an on-line CPD activity. The format of this program allows lectures to be streamed to you with on-line references and supportive teaching material. The on-line teaching material will use state of the art facilities at the University of Melbourne to provide an Oral Medicine course over a series of modules.
The CPD program at the Melbourne Dental School has enlisted a diversity of speakers and is offering a new Ceramic course, an expanded Resin Composite course and a new lab/clinician interaction course. Another highlight to the 2009 program is a new periodontal course focussing on periodontal surgery. The joint ADAVB/Melbourne Dental School committee has formulated two larger courses on Cracked and Split Teeth and Lasers in Dentistry. Both of these courses will have significant hands-on components with a wide range of experienced speakers.
2008 has been an exciting year at the Melbourne Dental School with a highly successful Endodontics Extravaganza held in the city. The long modular implant course and new prosthodontics course and tooth wear courses were all well received.
The Melbourne Dental School’s CPD committee has been key in tailoring courses for clinical needs encompassing new technologies. We are also very grateful for the hard work of Sam, Elena, Mario and Sue for the smooth running of our programs.
I would like to thank our kind sponsors for the support of the publication and all of the courses we offer. Also the Dental Practice Board of Victoria for all their on going advice throughout 2008. As always, our speakers have been keen to share their tremendous clinical experience and knowledge for which they must be complimented.
The CPD Unit at the Melbourne Dental School is looking forward very much to the 2009 program and working closely with you.
Dr Roy Judge
