1h 43min

The OHI‑S Root Perforations – Diagnosis and Treatment program is best for endodontists, restorative dentists, prosthodontists, and general practitioners who want structured, training in identifying and managing root perforations. It emphasizes evidence‑based diagnostic protocols, treatment options, and interdisciplinary collaboration to preserve teeth and ensure long‑term success.

👩‍⚕️ Who Should Enroll

• Endodontists managing complex root canal cases where perforations occur during treatment or due to pathology.
• Restorative dentists & general practitioners performing root canal therapy and restorative procedures who need to recognize and treat perforations.
• Prosthodontists rehabilitating compromised teeth where perforation management is critical for long‑term prognosis.
• Oral surgeons collaborating on surgical repair of perforations in severe cases.
• Residents & fellows in endodontics, restorative dentistry, or prosthodontics seeking advanced training in perforation management.
• Dental technicians supporting restorative workflows where perforation repair impacts prosthetic design.

📚 What You’ll Learn

• Diagnosis protocols: clinical and radiographic methods to identify root perforations.
