comes after health, the goal
of this is to know all the
techniques to do dental in
office and home bleaching
and apply in clinical practice.
it is divided into two parts: a
theory and a practice

The theoretical part that
concludes the course, describes
all the skills of the

in force and the
management of purchases
The practical part involves
all the students, where to
perform the professional
whitening treatments directly
on the patient, to know
the possibility of learning to
take the fingerprints with
alginate and then make the
models where they will be
able to make personalized
masks for home bleaching
