Exceptional Dental Series


Exceptional Dental Course Outlines

The "Exceptional Dental" course series was developed for the serious dentist.

If you are tired of being a simple "tooth mechanic", and want to become a full "Mouth Doctor", then these are the courses for you. The Exceptional Dental courses contain much of the dental based information that is found in the Chirodontic courses, but is presented from a fully "Dental" perspective. 

The content is designed for both beginners in the field of Cranial-Dental Orthopaedics, as well as seasoned practitioners of Neuromuscular Dentistry and Chirodontics.  You do not need to have done Chirodontics to attend these courses, and yet those dentists who have taken the Chirodontic courses will find these Exceptional Dental courses to be full of new and useful information.

To help with the "wet finger" dental perspective, Dr Walker has teamed up with Dr Kaye McArthur, a practicing dentist from the Gold Coast, Australia. She provides a "real world" dental view and shares with you her vast knowledge of Cosmetic and Restorative dentistry, as well as her years of clinical experience utilizing Computer Diagnostics, Cranial Facebows and Chirodontics.

These courses are intended for dentists who would like to learn how to establish both structural and neurological stability in their finished cases.

This course series is very "hands on" and therefore attendance is strictly limited in numbers and venues, so register quickly for the life changing Exceptional Dental course series.
