Photography is humbling. It has been one of the greatest teachers in improving my dentistry because it shows you what you might otherwise miss. It helps you assess your own work more honestly, understand cases more clearly, and plan treatment with a more complete picture in front of you. This masterclass is about using photography not just as a record, but as a tool for better clinical thinking.
