Description:

This seminar demonstrates simple, cost-effective, predictable, and clinical uses for bone regeneration focused on one-step alveolar ridge preservation using novel composite graft/collagen materials. Cost-effective surgical techniques for routine tooth extractions and innovative surgical procedures for ridge preservation, sinus lift, and grafting around immediately placed implants are discussed. This course covers current clinical guidelines and the scientific rationales behind them.

Learn:

• to understand alveolar ridge preservation and why it is essential to graft sockets
• to demonstrate simple, predictable, and cost-effective socket grafting techniques without the use of a membrane
• additional surgical applications covering post-extraction grafting around immediate implant placement, including filling inter-proximal and facial gaps after extraction

Dentists, Hygienists, Assistants, Students, Educator

Description:

This seminar discusses one-step ridge preservation, onlay grafting, and how to enhance the implant site by combining novel biomaterials with autologous growth factors. From simple and cost-effective socket grafting to more advanced clinical concepts in bone regeneration, this course covers a spectrum of pliable preformed shapes used in bone grafting procedures for implant placement. Surgical techniques and novel biomaterials are discussed using Synthetic Bioactive Resorbable Calcium Apatite crystals combined with bovine Achilles tendon collagen to form a composite material known as the OsteoGen® Bone Grafting Plugs, Strips, and Blocks.

Learn to:

• understand the role of new hybrid composite graft
• discuss the biologic and physiologic cellular response to dense bone-filling augmentation materials
• demonstrate simple, predictable, and cost-effective socket grafting techniques without the use of a membrane using the OsteoGen® Bone Grafting Plugs, Strips, and Blocks

Room: Glass Room #6
Topic: Sleep Apnea
Tuition: $430.00
Credits: 3
Recommended For:
Dentists, Hygienists, Assistants, Students, Administrative Staff, Lab Technicians, Spouse, Educator, Nurse, Doctor

Description:

Relevant sleep disorders, systemic diseases, medical diagnostics, and oral appliance therapy (OAT) for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA)/snoring are presented. Dental and sleep medicine guidelines, dental assessment, patient eligibility, protrusive bite registration, OAT options and selection, and common side effects are introduced in this workshop. Appliances are available to view and reinforce introductory dental sleep medicine and laboratory concepts.

Learn:

• to review sleep disorders, associated diseases, screening, diagnosis, and medical management
• how oral appliance therapy (OAT) can manage obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and snoring, as well as its limitations
• to understand dental and sleep medicine guidelines so attendees know when OAT is and is not indicated
• to become familiar with mandibular advancement device options, patient selection/eligibility, protrusive bite registration, and commonly anticipated OAT side effects

Description:

The real one-drill implant system is a game changer in the field of dental implants. This system has various advantages, such as reduced surgical time, less intra-and postoperative problems, and optimal primary stability for immediate implant procedures. This system’s core feature is step-locking, which offers exceptional primary stability. We simplify the procedure and decrease complexity by employing a single drill rather than many drills. We have effective systems in place to resolve any problems that may occur in circumstances when redirection or repositioning is required. Furthermore, we may execute five treatments in one with this technology, including extraction, bone grafting, sinus lift, implant implantation, and provisional restoration. The sinus membrane lift is done concurrently with the evidence-based implant, where autogenous bone graft material is delivered to the apical region of the implant. Overall, this ground-breaking implant system offers a tremendous improvement in implant dentistry, providing better efficiency, stability, and outstanding patient results.

 Learn to:

• the fundamentals of the one-drill implant system
• the foundations of immediate implant, guided bone regeneration, and sinus lift surgery all in one setting
• in comparison to traditional window treatments, alternative osteotome technique, less invasive HSC approaches and modern methods for sinus augmentation
