Seminars

Dr. Wright is available for giving seminars on a fee-for-service basis. Most presentation are one-hour long with more complex subjects broken into two presentations. Presentations are continually being modified, updated, and tailored to the needs of the audience. Send me an e-mail if you are interested in hosting a seminar.

Hands-on demonstrations are always popular as seen below in a dental demonstration at the Royal Winter Fair.
