Gordon Christensen’s chairside essentials — Class II composites, crowns, posts, sutures, implants and emergencies in 11 sessions
Veteran educator Gordon J. Christensen, founder of Clinicians Report, packs eleven self-contained topics into Gordon J. Christensen Practical Clinical Courses, running 11 h 50 min. Each hour-long session tackles one routine procedure — sensitivity-free Class II resin, crown material choice, fibre posts and build-ups, rubber dam, suturing, light-cured trays, implant placement and restoration, occlusal equilibration — plus office medical emergencies and administrative pitfalls.

Inside the course
Restorative bread and butter
Christensen compares preparation, matrix and finishing options for posterior resin, traces crowns from metal to current ceramics, and demonstrates canal preparation, post fitting and build-up material before impressions.
Techniques that save lab time
Visible-light-cured resin is used for custom trays, occlusion rims, post dams and denture repair or relining; the rubber dam session covers clamps, accessories and awkward placements step by step.
Implants and occlusion
A live patient demonstration shows affordable single-implant placement, another session weighs single-tooth to full-arch restorations and attachments, and equilibration is taught on casts and then on a patient.
Safety and administration
Simulated emergencies stress health histories and team roles; the administrative lesson deals with billing, discounts, PPO contracts and audit risk.
Built for
- General practitionersQuick refreshers on procedures done every week, with product-neutral advice.
- Dentists adding implantsA low-cost entry point for straightforward single-tooth cases.
- Practice teamsThe emergency and dry-field sessions suit whole-team viewing.
Curriculum
Before you buy
Is the practice-management part relevant outside the USA?
Only partly: the billing, PPO and unclaimed-property content reflects the American insurance system.
Do the sessions build on each other?
No, each is a standalone topic, so you can watch them in any order.
Do I get CME credit or a certificate?
No. Clinicapedia provides the educational content only — no CME or CE credits, MOC points or certificates of completion are included with this product.
