iTOP Introductory

09:00 - 16:30 English

iTOP Students - Gulf Medical University

iTOP Introductory course is a one-day course that provides practical knowledge for daily biofilm management.

The introductory programme explores the current shortcomings of daily dental prophylaxis and prophylactic education. It teaches how to improve oral health by practicing proper techniques and using the right oral hygiene tools.

At iTOP, we’re convinced that you can’t learn the proper brushing technique from the book. That’s why we use the «Touch to Teach» method and put the right techniques into practice. You’ll be supported by certified instructors during the practice.

Programme

• Theoretical introduction about iTOP philosophy 

• Criteria for selecting oral hygiene tools and techniques

• Practical training in small groups: Touch to Teach, individual prophylaxis coaching by certified instructors



Learning Objectives

  • Participants understand the problems associated with biofilm and are familiar with the importance of individually trained oral prophylaxis.
  • Master the most important techniques using toothbrushes and interdental brushes.  
  • Recognize the importance of acceptance and success as the basis of an oral hygiene that’s both effective and fun.
