A fantastic oral surgery course with plenty of hands on practice and valuable clinical tips from Tamer. I wanted to do this course to enable me to take on more cases that I would usually refer. I certainly feel more confident in doing so and found the course to be very informative and enjoyable. Thank you.
As a DCT The hands on Oral Surgery course by Tamer Theodossy has really opened my eyes to different, more effective and patient friendly ways of approaching both non-surgical and surgical extractions. ReadI have picked up new techniques such as the chopstick method and received an exceptional amount of very helpful 1 to 1 feedback on my clinical skills. We even covered buccal advancement flaps and surgical extractions of lower wisdom teeth. The models we practiced on are exceptional and as close as possible to extracting human teeth. My clinical skills have substantially improved as a result of this course and my approach has been revolutionised. I would strongly recommend the course to fellow DCT’s, DFT’s and General Dental Practitioners.
This course is for everyone who wants to enhance their oral surgery skills.
It has given me the confidence and an understanding of anatomy, medical conditions which could effect our treatment and how best to treatment plan by careful study of the xrays.
Tamer is an excellent tutor who gives valuable tips which are really helpful in day to day practice.
Would highly recommend this course.
One of the best oral surgery courses I’ve attended. Dr Tamer was very engaging and approachable, his wealth of experience was clear and he made sure to check everything we did on the hands on part so you really get that 1-1. I much prefer his plastic models over pigs head. Highly recommend to people looking to improve their confidence in surgicals, a great refresher.
This is an excellent course where I picked up lots of tips that I can implement immediately. Got lots of hands-on practice too. Tamer is very knowledgeable in his subject and was happy to answer all our questions. He is also very approachable and came over to everyone to help and advise with the hands-on. Overall I had a very enjoyable weekend updating my oral surgery skills.
I thoroughly enjoyed Tamer’s hands on oral surgery course. It was very well organised and a perfect balance of theory and practical. The models were a great simulation and with the hints and tips I was given on the course, I feel that I can apply what I learned straight away in practice with confidence.’
Best course I’ve been on. Was perfect for a GDP wanting to improve skills and confidence to tackle the more difficult extractions in practice. Tamer extremely approachable, knowledgeable and tailored things to suit each delegates individual needs. Wish this course existed 10 years ago! Thank you
Feeling good this Monday morning 😁 Sectioned a molar and successfully extracted it🙌 Thanks Tamer I wouldn’t have had the confidence to do that before the course!
Tamer Theodossy’s Oral surgery course has been an eye opener . He has an exceptional knowledge in Oral surgery and is an excellent tutor . I have learnt many new techniques and I now feel confident to tackle even more difficult cases . I would highly recommend this course to anyone who is wishing to take their oral surgery skills to another level . The after course support is brilliant too !
Last weekend I had a great opportunity to attend such a great Oral Surgery course, so well organised and advanced! The hands on feel was close to real circumstances and the teaching from Tamer Theodossy was very attentive and informative! One of the best courses I have been! Thanks so much!
Tamer Theodossy’s oral surgery course is definitely one that I am glad I attended! It is highly engaging and very well-structured. The course is well-delivered and offers excellent hands on experience. In addition to his interactive teaching style and wealth of clinical expertise, Tamer is very approachable and friendly. He is happy to answer all your questions. The live oral surgery demonstrations during the course were very helpful. This course has given me valuable clinical and patient-management tips and I now feel more confident in oral surgery. I will definitely be recommending this course to all my dental colleagues.
“I had been dreading extractions since I had a bad experience on a big upper molar a few years ago and had been reluctant and had lost my confidence since then. This course opened my eyes and gave me lots of very useful practical tips for everyday practice to gain my confidence back. Excellent set up with high quality materials and instruments and the phantom heads with partially erupted wisdom teeth and soft gums made it feel a lot closer to real practice. Mr Theodossy is a very talented lecturer that kept it constantly interesting and practice relevant. Plenty of time for hands-on practice and all questions answered, plus the bonus of being a member of an alumni group. I cannot recommend it enough. A big thank you!”
“In my opinion what makes the course special is Mr Theodossy’s accurate tips not only at the theoretical part but during the hands on as well.
It’s been a week since the course and what I ‘ve learnt has already been applied in my daily clinical practice as an associate dentist.
A course highly recommended for those who want to feel more comfortable and make their life easier when it comes to oral surgery.”
Thank you for the confidence you inspired in us to challenge the fear of defeat. Thank you for teaching us how to think and plan before facing the hardship of rushing into action. It was a great pleasure participating in your fantastic course!
This is the best post graduate training course I have ever been on. This is the gold standard for all others to follow!
“By far the best hands-on oral surgery training I have had. Mr Theodossy is a fantastic teacher, providing countless practical tips to overcome common challenges many GDPs face doing surgery in primary care. There is lots of time spent doing hands-on practice where he constantly checks each stage of your work to ensure you have the correct technique. Having an expert closely watch your technique is invaluable; areas for improvement identified and soon rectified. I have come away from the course with greater confidence and therefore recommend this to any colleague seeking the same. You are well taken care of during the course, with great food, and an open door for on-going support afterwards. Great value for money”
One of the best oral surgery courses around. Great for anyone looking to refresh their oral surgery skills from both non-surgical to surgical techniques all practiced on bespoke models. Dr Theodossy is very engaging and gives you lots of little tricks which can be implemented into daily practice. The course was a perfect blend of theory and practical and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to gain more confidence in oral surgery.
The ‘Hands on oral surgery’ course by Tamer Theodossy is a must for every General Dental practitioner. It is a meticulously crafted two day course with lots of hands on practicals. The phantom head models almost mimicked the real time teeth.
Tamer is a very dedicated,passionate and excellent tutor. The hands on sessions he teaches and caters individually are fantastic and invaluable.
I would highly recommend this course to everyone.
The Hands-on Oral Surgery course has exceeded my expectations. We were given models mounted in the phantom heads which replicate real life situations and we practiced various suturing techniques and extraction techniques. I found it amazing that the teeth were actually hard to extract from the models, as if they were real teeth, and the root anatomy was very accurate. The most interesting for me was the procedure to close an oral antral communication and the extraction of mesio-angular impacted partially erupted wisdom tooth. The technique with flap raising and separating the lower third molar in 4 pieces with the surgical handpiece is something I didn’t think I would be able to do, but the training made me realise it is actually something that can be done in general practice. We were also provided with high quality surgical instruments, Hemocollagene sponges and PPE, and Dr. Tamer was closely watching and helping each one of us during each step of the procedures.
I was impressed by Mr Theodossy’s teaching skills, the way how he organised the course and the clarity of the information he passed on to us.
Even though the course was intense, I didn’t lose my interest in listening for not even one second.
The course made me approach all my cases with confidence.
Thank you.
I just wanted to say thank you to you and Laura for running a very informative and well run course… I spent monday ruminating and reflecting over what we’d learnt, and yesterday (tuesday), lo and behold, I carried out my first solo surgical extraction on a mesio-angular partially erupted LR8 – a cheeky distal relieving incision, luxating mesially and buccally, delivered without any bone removal or drilling, and finished with an interrupted suture. all good! I hope you have a solid week, ready for a weekend of espresso martinis 🙂
The Hands-On Oral Surgery course run by Tamer was fantastic!!
There was a brilliant blend of both theory and practical. I now feel up to date with the current guidance in addition to feeling massively more confident in my skills to take out more tricky teeth.
Tamer taught with enthusiasm and was there on hand at all times to offer advise and tips throughout the practical activities.
The course was well organised from first booking, to information provide beforehand as well as during the weekend.
Laura and Tamer ran the course brilliantly. All in all I felt welcomed, well cared for and thoroughly educated throughout the full weekend.
A massive thanks to both of you.
I became a dentist almost 18 years ago and have already attended numerous courses. This is, by far, the best course on oral surgery that I had the opportunity to attend. Tamer is very clear and able to catch your attention. I would unreservedly recommend this course to any colleague keen to enhance both the theoretical and the practical knowledge in oral surgery
Just back from attending Tamer Theodossy’s oral surgery/ extractions course at the weekend and the only thing I regret is not doing it much sooner. If you’re like me having come out of university with very little surgical or complex extraction experience / you’ve been plonked next to an oral surgeon for 5 years of your career and deskilled I cannot recommend this course enough. Tamer is an amazing teacher and very kind. I am no longer terrified at the thought of a difficult extraction/ tooth fracturing or raising a flap to xla an 8.
The course Is fantastic, I really enjoy it and I highly recommend it to any GDP NHS or private to enhance their surgical skills.
You will get in two intense days everything you need, knowledge, practical skills, updated protocols, and access to a learning platform.
Tamer is an amazing teacher and he will share with you tips from his experience. All the practical aspects are spot on, performed on very realistic models and you have time to practice, ask questions, and watch lots of videos with real cases. Everything is very thoroughly explained, demonstrated, and performed to a very high standard.
I consider the course essential covering a very important area of dentistry and I appreciate the effort Tamer is making to have that course available in Scotland.
I can highly recommend the oral surgery course lead by Tamer Theodossy . Tamer is concise methodical and compassionate in his teaching and instilled the same qualities in the delegates attending. He made careful effort to observe each delegate and provided helpful advice in a warm kind manner.
Oral surgery and especially difficult extractions can be daunting area but after returning to practice I have already removed teeth that I may otherwise have fractured and panicked about removing.
Please extend my thanks to Tamer and his team for a fantastic week of learning and development. I wish I could come back for seconds! I have already used many of the techniques he taught us and hope they will continue to help me out of many sticky situations. If only I had this knowledge to hand 10-15years ago!
Would just like to thank Tamer for an excellent and informative few days. He is a very approachable teacher, and gets his ideas across with clarity. The organisation and hospitality was great. The course definitely met all the objectives and I have taken plenty away from it. And will be able to put all the new tips and techniques into action straight away. I only wish I’d done a course like this 10 years ago – it would have helped avoid a lot of extraction related headaches!!!
Not only was this one of the most informative courses I have ever been on, but it was also the most enjoyable. Tamer is an excellent teacher, and there was lots of time for actually carrying out procedures and getting feedback during the weekend. The pre-course videos are very good. Another valuable aspect of the course is access to the post course Facebook group, really handy for getting his opinion about clinical cases.
I would definitely recommend this course to anyone, whether oral surgery is something you dread or its the thing you most like doing in dentistry. Tamers enthusiasm for the subject really shines through and I learned lots that I was able to put into practice immediately.
The oral surgery course by Mr Theodossy was so far the best one in this field. He is so passionate and enthusiastic about oral surgery that it’s impossible to drift away or zone out while he speaks. I believe after this weekend my tooth extraction skills have significantly improved.
The location of the course and the set up was great, the tooth models very well made and almost like a real-life situation. The food was too nice honestly. It has exceeded my expectations in all possible ways. I can only say thank you sir for sharing you passion and knowledge with us. God bless
Thank you very much for a great course last weekend. I just wanted to say I took out a LR6 today with hardly any crown left and managed to take it out with forceps thanks to the tips I learnt from you. I can’t thank you enough for giving me the confidence to persist with extractions again.
I cannot speak anymore highly of the course provided by Tamer. Having been a DWSI in IMOS for 14yrs+ I thought there would be minimal new learning and mostly recaps of theory and established techniques.
I am so pleased to report that both days offer the best amount of new learning. Much appreciated indeed.
Both days were highly organised and provided innovative MOS techniques and the rationale behind them.
Tamer is truly an expert in this field, with very unique teaching abilities. Excellent and he was very entertaining at the same time!
Thank you Tamer, Laura & Karen.
Had an extremely enjoyable time over the last 2 days with one of the most passionate teachers i have come across.Tamer makes you want to learn and excel in oral surgery and he definitely knows how to get you there! Thanks for a very informative and absorbing program, hope to use all the new knowledge and resources to enhance my level /skill in it.
This was a well organised course aimed at general dentists who wanted to improve their confidence in oral surgery . Tamer is an excellent teacher who was always watching over us when we were carrying out the procedures and he patiently answered all our questions . He teaches you how to carry out a surgical extraction whilst preserving as much bone as possible . It was a fully packed , intense 2 days which was very informative and enjoyable at the same time . I would highly recommend this course to any general dentist who wants to improve their game in oral surgery.
This course has been one of the best I’ve attended in many years. I regret not discovering it sooner. Dr. Tamer, a genuinely dedicated clinician and tutor, generously shares all his insights and promptly addresses all questions without reservation. There are no hidden tips; the lectures are directly applicable to real-life situations. His humility and friendliness are greatly appreciated, and I am immensely thankful to him.
Tamer’s Hands-on Oral Surgery has to be the best one out there – I would highly recommend to all GDPs. Our group learned so much over the two-day course and we were given so much encouragement from Tamer. His blended learning approach allowed plenty of time for hands-on practical work as well as lectures, videos and quizzes. A fantastic course!
Tamer runs a fantastic course. Novices and veterans alike have something to learn. Tips and tricks galore,with lots of hands- on. Thanks !
This course is absolutely fantastic for anyone looking to improve their oral surgery skills. I gained confidence in undertaking surgical extractions, sectioning teeth, removal of wisdom teeth and much more. Tamer was attentive throughout and I picked up many tips and tricks. Thankyou for an incredible course. I would highly recommend it.
Brilliant course that has massively helped me in general practice. Helpful to go back over the basics after a few years experience in practice, so feel like my simple extractions have also gotten more efficient/ smoother. The course has lots of hands on experience and I now feel confident to tackle a surgical extraction now thanks to lots of feedback and advice!
What a great course would not hesitate to recommend ! Mr Theodossy is so approachable and makes oral surgery less intimidating. The course layout kept me engaged at all times with a variety of teaching methods
The best course I have attended for Oral surgery! I highly recommend it to anyone being afraid of extractions and needs to boost their confidence.
This 2-day course had everything I needed. Around 90% of hands-on include Simple extractions, sectioning teeth, raising flaps, closing OAC, practising suturing techniques and extracting partially erupted wisdom teeth. All work is being done on models in phantom heads that simulate a lot of the clinical situations we encounter daily. Tamer spent a lot of time on our working position for every extraction.
The theoretic part covered all hot topics of MRONJ, Medically compromised patients, Antiplateles and Anticoagulants, etc. Lots of videos and tips and tricks. The after-course Facebook group is of great value. Thank you!
Dear Tamer & Karen,
I would like to thank you for the opportunity that you offered for a such great hands-on course on a challenging topic like oral surgery. I used to be apprehensive in regards approaching oral surgery matters in my day to day work but this course ignited an keen interest in this field. I left the course feeling inspired with new tools and techniques that I can now confidently implement in my daily practice.
Thank you for the certificate and for your continual support
I like oral surgery but felt I had deskilled as I hadn’t done any surgical extractions with bone removal since dental school 7 years ago. A friend recommended this course to me and I’m so glad she did. It was a really useful course including all the practicalities of making sure you have the right equipment before you start, assessment of the patient, the hands on practical procedures and managing complications. The models were cleverly designed to feel life-like and simulate impactions that you wouldn’t find in animal models. I would definitely recommend this course.
What can I say. A must for anyone wanting to improve there knowledge with extractions. Used the tips immediately in practice the next day and just made my life easier, knowing how to assess the angulations and guiding the tooth out in a chronological manner. Thanks Tamer.
I attended this course for more oral surgery experience. It was great from start to finish! The teaching was spot on , the facilities were top notch and the food / drinks/ snacks were excellent. Will definitely look out for future courses.
“A perfect course for any dentist keen to expand or refresh their oral surgery skills. Very well organised and run with plenty of time to chat about cases/radiographs. Tamer is excellent at explaining all apsects of oral surgery. Largely hands-on with lots of challenging extractions to tackle and lots of suturing practice. Also, undoubtedly the best food I’ve ever had a course. Highly recommended!”
I would like to express my gratitude for taking part in such an amazing course. The decision to attend above event was dictated by my lack of confidence, which was based on a few unsuccessful cases.
Tamer is very knowledgeable and supportive tutor. All the weekend which included both hands on practice ( provided on phantom heads) and theory was engaging and informative.
As for GDP being very apprehensive it gave me opportunity to rectify mistakes and improve my skills.
And I would definitely recommend it to every dentist wishing to refresh their knowledge and clinical abilities.
Once again a massive thank for organizing such a brilliant course.
The experience of this course is really unforgettable. Tamer is explains everything in very details, but also in a very easy to understand way. Topics covered are everything I wish to learn: surgical extractions of all teeth, flaps and sutures, impacted wisdom teeth.
Had really good hands-on demonstration from Tamer and also live surgical videos. Had ample practice on the phantom head model, although I wish to have even more lol, but there’re always so much more important topics to cover! The models feel real, each tooth feel the same as you’re extracting on real patient.
Really touched and inspired by his down-to-earth attitude, humour, and patient first mindset. I see what constitutes a good dentist and oral surgeon!
I went on Tamer Theodossy’s course last weekend and have just perfomed my first surgical extraction with confidence. I cannot recommend this course enough. His clear concise lectures which details the important theory behind surgicals is then implemented straight into hands on theory. The groups are quite small, so you have a lot of one-on-one time with Tamer who answers all your questions and helps you directly with your technique. To top it off, the lunch on both days was brilliant. I think this course is organised excellently, the hands on learning is very helpful and then there is also help post course via an online group run by Tamer himself. I have recommended this course to my colleagues and will 100% be attending any future courses run by him.
“I had an amazing experience attending this course! It was incredibly well-organised, with a perfect balance of theory and hands-on practice. There was so much hands-on time, which made the learning process truly immersive and rewarding.
Mr Tamer was not only highly knowledgeable but also an excellent teacher. He created a comfortable, fun and supportive learning environment, explaining concepts clearly and answering questions with patience. His enthusiasm for teaching made the experience exciting and engaging.
Overall, this course exceeded my expectations and gave me the confidence to apply the skills I learned in my practice. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to improve their oral surgery skills!”
The course was great, the hands on element really helped with the development of the new skills Tamer had taught us. He detailed his protocols to allow us to understand a pathway that should be followed for each extraction. I was able to go into practice on the Monday and start using the skills I had been taught straight away. It’s great as it’s applicable for both NHS and private dentists, unlike some courses where you cannot use the skills you learn on your NHS patients. Both Tamer and Laura were very helpful and approachable, thanks again!
If you are unsure about booking onto the course, i highly recommend it.
I found it to be informative and helpful and increased my interest in Oral surgery further. Just wish it was a bit longer!
Tamer does a great job teaching and you will feel well supported and relaxed throughout.
Course content is relevant and plentiful.
Thanks again!
This hands-on oral surgery course is an exceptional learning experience for dentists at every stage of their career. The protocols shared are refreshingly straightforward, practical, and immediately applicable in clinical practice. What really stands out is how the course is structured to accommodate all levels of experience, whether you’re just starting out or are an experienced surgeon, you’ll find invaluable insights and techniques to refine your approach. The teaching is clear, focused, and grounded in real-world application, making complex procedures feel accessible and achievable. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to elevate their surgical confidence and capability.
I found the course really enjoyable and especially the hands-on part is invaluable. I left feeling much more confident carrying out surgical procedures, from simple extractions to more complex ones and suturing
I attended this hands-on oral surgery course with hopes to improve my confidence in surgical extraction cases. The course had the right balance of theory and practical and was delivered at a digestible pace. The course leader was very approachable and there were lots of opportunities for questions and discussing personal cases. After undertaking this training, I now look forward to putting the skills we learned into practice and attempting more surgical cases in my own clinic
The sessions provided an excellent balance of theory and live practice, with clear guidance from Tamer. I gained valuable insights into surgical techniques, flap design, and suturing. Overall, it was a highly worthwhile experience that will directly benefit my daily practice.
I recently attended the oral surgery course and found it to be an excellent learning experience.
The content was thorough, practical, and very relevant to everyday clinical practice.
Mr. Theodossy is a fantastic speaker — engaging, knowledgeable, and able to explain complex techniques with clarity and confidence.
I’ve come away from the course feeling much more confident in performing surgical extractions and flap procedures, and I’m certain the skills I’ve gained will translate into significantly improved patient care. Highly recommended!
Fantastic oral surgery course this weekend! 🦷 A brilliant, hands-on update with excellent teaching and plenty of practical tips to take back into practice. Huge thanks to everyone who organised it and Dr Tamer who delivered such an engaging course!
