Overview

About this course

DENTER offers online preparation followed by a practical isolation day with Dr Nika Abolseldgh. The programme covers clamp selection, single-tooth and quadrant isolation, challenging posterior teeth, deep margins and adhesive cementation.

Upcoming dates are 5 December 2026 and 20 February 2027.

Practical isolation scenarios

Exercises include routine quadrant and single-tooth isolation, endodontics, the last standing molar, anterior aesthetic cases and deep margins. Teaching connects clamp choice with onlay and veneer cementation, intraoral scanning with the dam in place, and a four-handed workflow with the dental nurse.

Online theory precedes the practical day. Groups are limited to sixteen. An accompanying nurse may be accommodated at a reduced rate by prior arrangement.

Attendance and tutor

Training is at Thistle London Holborn, Bloomsbury Way, London WC1A 2SD. Arrival is from 9am, teaching begins at 9:30am and finishes around 5pm, with lunch scheduled for 1–2pm.
