Programme

Day 1: Saturday 27th June, 2026; 09:00 – 17:00

Foundations and System Principles establishes the scientific and engineering rationale behind the Damon Ultima system. Participants gain insight into historical bracket limitations, modern precision manufacturing, variable torque concepts, and the critical importance of accurate bracket positioning. Through applied case examples, delegates build the theoretical and technical confidence required for predictable three-dimensional control.

Day 2: Saturday 24th October, 2026; 09:00 – 17:00

Structured Case Management and Clinical Progression introduces a simplified three-phase treatment model that enhances efficiency, organisation, and predictability in everyday practice. Clinicians learn how to guide cases from early alignment through full expression to finishing mechanics, supported by progressive case reviews, wire sequencing strategies, and digital workflow optimisation to improve both patient experience and practice productivity.

Day 3: Saturday 27th February, 2027; 09:00 – 17:00

Preparation, Finishing, and Aesthetic Optimisation focuses on meticulous execution and refinement. Emphasis is placed on pre-treatment preparation, phase-specific components, torque and positioning reassessment, and the fine detailing required to achieve exceptional functional and aesthetic outcomes. The module culminates in advanced finishing protocols, including hard- and soft-tissue contouring and streamlined debond procedures.
