Advanced Case Selection

Know when to treat, modify, or refer.

These radiographic case studies strengthen your understanding of more challenging third molar cases that may still be appropriate for an experienced general dentist. We go deep into radiographic analysis, flap modification, purchase points, sectioning strategy, instrument selection, and referral judgment. By the end of this module, you’ll be able to look at a PAN and quickly decide whether a case belongs in your chair — or is best referred.
