Critical Appraisal Workshop Newcastle Dental Hospital

Orthodontists, Restorative Surgeons: ISFE preparation

We organised a critical appraisal workshop for trainees based around Newcastle. The course was attended by dental professionals including specialists in orthodontics, restorative dentistry and oral medicine.

The seniority of the delegates ranged from those new to the specialty to those preparing for the ISFE exam. We used a bespoke course workbook to illustrate concepts using excerpts from real clinical papers and we tested the delegates throughout the day using wireless handsets.

The interactive approach is key characteristic of our training courses and helps delegates stay involved and understand their own strengths and weaknesses.
