What To Bring:

• If you operate with loupes when prepping, we recommend you bring them along for the hands on exercises. 
• Your #rockthedrill t-shirt for Saturday!!! 
• Your personal DSLR Canon or Nikon camera with a macro lens, ring flash, or dual point bracket lights. These are the only two brands that will be supported in the hand’s section. If you don’t yet have a DSLR camera, we recommend you purchase one at www.photomed.net for the fully adjustable DSLR camera packages. Rick Spaulding also offers a budget option with less flexibility – Rick Spaulding Canon SX70 HS Dental Kit for $1299 which can be bought at https://rickspaulding.com (If you haven’t purchased a DSLR and hope to get by without one, you may find yourself limited in doing comprehensive dentistry)
• A pair of cheek retractors
• High-Quality Occlusal mirror (double-sided chromium mirror)
• Black Contraster

NOTE: To participate in the hands-on portion, you must have a camera that your instructors can help you with settings, and success back in practice. We will have a very limited amount of demo cameras. (Shofu brands, Olympus, Sony, point and shoot or iphone/android cameras are not supported in the hands on section). 

Due to the nature of our hands on program, our ending time can vary based on the questions in the group and support needed. We encourage you not to make dinner reservations before 7pm
