Root Camp Courses

…where we build Comm-Endos, the Root Elite!

“At the end of the day, whether we are general dentists or specialists, our mission is to help patients maintain their dental health” – Dr. Win Nguyen

ROOT CAMP was founded by Dr. “Win” Nguyen who built a series of courses as an extension of the original training dentists undertook, which is to serve and heal patients. His unrelenting drive requires balance within 3 areas: practicing clinician, business owner and academician. He however clearly understands the struggles of dental practitioners and developed 4 courses to improve quality of life, through preserving the 2 things that no one could ever buy … TIME and HEALTH, for both Patients and Doctors. A true “Nguyen Nguyen” proposition.

The “a la carte” approach to the various modules allows clinicians of all backgrounds and proficiency levels to find the judicious combination that fits their schedule, learning needs and clinical wants.

Baptism by Fire ... learn from a General who has made his share of mistakes

“The best part of the course in my opinion is the mindset Win teaches you. It was truly a life changing experience” 
– Dr. Kye Williams (Newark, DE)

“Dr Win Nguyen has a fantastic perspective on current endodontic protocols and presents them in an way that is so clinically relevant that my second day back in the office I knocked my premolar RCT time down to 25 minutes and had an excellent result” 
– Dr. Nick Mattila (Suamico, WI)

“Dr. Nguyen is an amazing teacher…He is concise and engaging, and gave us the tools to troubleshoot issues and actually think our way through cases. He keeps his method simple!”
– Dr. Gina Khong (Houston, TX)

He subsequently earned his Certificate in Clinical Endodontics and Master of Science in Dentistry degree in 2001 from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, OH.

Courses and Events

E-TRACK

This track focuses on building Endo Experts, by putting the WHY behind the HOW and the SCIENCE behind the WHY 

In Root Camp Level 1, learn over 3 days, the skills to tackle calcified molars, retreatment and entry-level apical surgery. Interactively presented is a tsunami of information that reiterate the core principles of clinical Endodontics, and highlight the latest and greatest innovations, from a science-supported standpoint but with a clinically-relevant and patient-centered approach. Beyond that, the course is designed to elevate general dentists to the pinnacle of their profession, fostering the “Expert Mindset” that transcends traditional clinical boundaries. Participants will not only master cutting-edge endodontic techniques but also acquire the strategic acumen to distinguish themselves in a competitive market. This will include a panoply of business and treatment planning strategies and tactics to attain the ultimate goal of “Work Less, Make More and Stress Less”

Small class size allows each participant to remain engaged and their questions answered in depth. This first step in the Root Camp Series provides the “why” behind the “how” and equips attendees not only with clear-cut protocols but also the knowledge that they each need to trouble shoot the day-to-day challenges of modern clinical Endodontics. Level I culminates with a hands-on workshop that focuses on how to complete molar RCTs in 30-minutes.

Tuition: USD 3,950 – 24 CE credits 

The 3-day “Mud Run” cadaver workshop teaches clinical step-by-step protocols, using an array of systems and materials in a model that most closely simulates a live patient. Doctors and their support teams are taught proficiency at rendering patient-centered, high-quality, effective, efficient and highly profitable endodontic care. Bring your administrative and clinical team with you so that everyone can learn the “Endo Dance”. 

Extensive hands-on “in-the-trenches” learning is limited to 8 teams. “Large weapons” such as CBCT, Dental Operating Microscope and Laser are provided to each team. A true “Immersion Experience.”

Tuition: USD 10,000 – 24 CE credits 

*Bring up to 5 members of your Team at no additional cost

Known as The Coaching Program, “Work 3 Play 4” adds the business and practice management perspective to the initial 2 phases of the Root Camp Course Series. 

W3P4 involves one-on-one coaching over 6-months. Business strategies built on skills previously learned are implemented and tracked closely to ensure matching outcomes. Plan reviews and continual coaching ensure that systems ultimately optimize both human and financial resources. 

The end-in-mind of W3P4 is to allow practitioners to stop the “live-to-work rat race”, and focus on “work-to-live” instead and enjoy a 4-day week-end.

Tuition: USD 34,000​​

Known as “The Works”, the 12-month Mini-Residency pulls together levels I, II and III in an intensive week-by-week program highlighted by day-to-day treatment planning, scientific literature review, case presentations and in-depth literature-based discussions.

The goal of the Mini-Residency is to enable each Doctor with the necessary science to support the “Why” and “How” provided in Levels I through III, and therefore forge the true and complete Endodontic Experts whose sole goals should be to do “whatever it takes” to save the “Natural Implant”.

*4 cadaver courses included in the program to further improve the hands-on aspect
