Dr Shiraz Khan is collaborating with IAS Academy to present a new training programme – the Anterior and Posterior Composite Course – starting from November 2021. Commenting on what the programme is all about and how it was put together, Shiraz says:

“The IAS Academy has been doing ortho-restorative courses for a long time. I was approached by Dr Tif Qureshi – a director of IAS Academy – to provide a composite course. It was quickly understood that ‘ortho-restorative’ in this concept would imply posterior stability and occlusion, but also anterior aesthetics and stability. It became clear that a course that encompassed both anterior and posterior composites would, therefore, be ideal for IAS Academy delegates.

“I’ve been teaching composite courses for several years now, having trained extensively and travelled around the world to develop my own knowledge and skill in the field. I used a combination of all the techniques I have learnt ­– such as cavity design, with bonding, isolation and anatomical aspects – to create the programme for this new course.

“The skills we aim to teach are going to be applicable on Monday morning in practice. The course isn’t about persuading clinicians to buy a fancy kit or specific materials – it’s about providing new skills to take away and implement immediately. The more the skills are practised, the more proficient GDPs will become with them for higher clinical standards.”

With a vast array of IAS Academy training tailored specifically to modern GDPs in order to build their clinical capability and confidence, Shiraz highlights who would benefit most from the new Anterior and Posterior Composite Course:

“The training would be suitable for a wide range of GDPs; anyone looking to get a clear, simple and dogmatic approach to posterior anatomy and anterior form, polishing protocols and morphology.”

The new programme will be in-keeping with the IAS Academy ethos for promoting ethical, minimally invasive dentistry. Shiraz concludes:

“IAS Academy is teaching orthodontic and restorative excellence at all stages and with all techniques. The course therefore fits with this ethos nicely, offering comprehensive teaching in both anterior and posterior restorative dentistry. I hope to help colleagues become comfortable enough with these restorative techniques to simply, effectively, safely and profitability offer successful solutions to a wide range of patients.

“I’d like to thank IAS Academy for the opportunity to create this course, and I look forward to delivering it in the future.”
