John Kanca to return to Scotland


A


fter an absence of more than 10 years since his last visit, NHS Education for Scotland (NES) is bringing John Kanca back to Scot-


land to present a ‘Masterclass in Adhesive Dentistry’ on 12 October in Glasgow. Dr Kanca is recognised as a pioneer


and world-class authority on all things to do with adhesive dentistry. His extensive research and materials development is based on his continued experience in clinical practice, being one of a rare and special group who combine world-leading research with real-world clinical practice. He maintains a thriving practice in Middle- bury, Connecticut, USA, specialising in aesthetic and cosmetic dentistry. Those who have listened to John Kanca’s


presentations before have hailed them as a clinical practice-changing experience. East Kilbride dentist Tom Lamont said: “John Kanca’s presentation was one of the best I have heard. He presents dental materials in an exciting, practical and understand- able way.” Dr Kanca participated in the first study


to validate the etching and bonding of dentine, making it the everyday procedure we all use today. He has developed, and co-created, many well-known and leading- edge bonding systems over the years. He discovered ‘Wet Bonding’ and went on to create the fourth generation of bonding systems and the concept of pulse activation of composites.


HOW TO BOOK


The ‘Masterclass in Adhesive Dentistry’ is being held in the Argyle Suite, which has a separate entrance from the main hotel facing the Clyde Auditorium. There are car parking facilities which will cost £5 for the day for any delegates attending the event. Included in the cost is a two- course hot buffet lunch in the One Restaurant. There will also be an opportunity to meet, discuss and view products from a variety of dental representatives.
