Description:

What on earth could go wrong during a well-intended root canal treatment? It has happened to all of us. A bump on the track appears and suddenly there seems to be a heap of consequences. In this session, we will explore common and less frequent catastrophes, the moment a treatment derailed and strategies on how to slam on the brakes and avoid this happening to you.

Drs Christine and Ove Peters will discuss patterns they discovered in many years of being clinicians and educators, examples of accidents from private practice and what will be a fender-bender or a smashup in court cases of patient versus doctor.

At the conclusion of this presentation, participants will be able to: 

  • Determine crucial switch points in diagnosis that require special attention.
  • Resetting the route to the destination and avoiding undesirable roadblocks.
  • Professionally handle common derailments and limit damage.
