The maxillary posterior edentulous region can present a challenging condition for dental implant placement. The amount of bone necessary for an implant supported restoration may be compromised due to pneumatization of the sinus cavity and alveolar bone resorption. These problems can be overcome by sinus grafting procedures. Dental implant reconstruction for advanced alveolar ridge atrophy has become possible through bone grafting procedures involving the maxillary sinus. With the advent of new surgical techniques and equipment sinus augmentation has become a predictable and efficient treatment

The Foundation for Airway Health Presents Airway Summit 2018: A Collaborative Approach to Sleep / Airway Disorders
Leading dental educators, scientific academy representatives, allied health organizations, representatives from the military and members of the public offer information about what the dental team must know, and can do to impact positive health change for patients. In October 2017, the ADA approved a policy statement, emphasizing dentistry’s role in screening for sleep-related breathing disorders. Is your practice prepared? Learn from not one but 18 presenters. This is a good place to begin your sleep education as well as to expand it to new levels.
Sleep Related Breathing Disorders (SRBDs) are a set of potentially serious medical conditions – snoring, upper airway resistance syndrome (UARS), obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and others – characterized by disruptions in normal breathing patterns. Metabolic, cardiovascular, respiratory, dental and other diseases have been found to be related. Dentists are the only health care provider with the knowledge and expertise to provide oral appliance therapy (OAT).
This program covers dental sleep medicine, restorative dentistry, orthodontics, myofunctional therapy, TMD, physiological monitoring, public health initiatives and more. Learn how to provide OAT for mild and moderate sleep apnea when a patient does not tolerate a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) device; recognize and managing OAT side effects; and continually update dental sleep medicine knowledge and training at the Airway Summit.
Learn to:
assess a patient’s risk for SRBD as part of a comprehensive medical and dental history
refer affected patients to appropriate physicians
evaluate the appropriateness of OAT as prescribed by a physician

People are more focused on the appearance of their teeth than ever before. Many clinicians realize the majority of esthetic concerns are derived from excessive wear and chipping of teeth rather than the color. It is imperative for the dentist to understand why teeth wear and what is needed to correct the underlying issues. Altering anterior teeth does not only change the esthetics of a smile, but also the phonetics, envelope of function, anterior guidance, and centric contact are all changed when restoring worn teeth. Missing the mark on any of these factors will lead to a compromised result.

Wear is the nemesis that destroys predictability and longevity. In many cases, the primary risks are identifiable from the history presented in the joints, the muscles, the teeth, and the patient’s current condition. New information around breathing and airway has changed our understanding of the possible etiology of wear and altered the differential diagnosis. This has also changed the way in which dentists see their place in the systemic health of their patients and the role we have as part of a health care team that views any risk to health as an important part of our charge to treat. This program illustrates and discusses recognizing and addressing those risks.

This hands-on workshop demonstrates how growth factors are produced and activated to improve bio-compatibility in procedures like GBR (Guided Bone Regeneration) and soft tissue management. There is scientific evidence to demonstrate that the growth factors are released by platelets and white cells. Dentists have utilized PRF since 2000 and, we now have low speed centrifugation for Advanced PRF (A-PRF) and Injectable PRF (i-PRF) which are being routinely used for GBR and GTR procedures. Advanced Platelet Rich Fibrin, combines the fibrin network, the growth factors from the platelets and an increased
amount of white cells for better vascularization. The i-PRF introduces platelets, white cells, fibrinogen in liquid form but with a high number of mesenchymal stems cells. This concept has revolutionized routine tissue grafting and healing. Hands-on exercises include venipuncture; fabrication of PRF membranes, plugs and steaky bone; tenting and space management; and GBR using “Steaky Bone.”

This hands-on workshop uses an audience-response system to discuss various desired outcomes in endodontics, notably, to understand the mostly restorative issues that cause failure of root canal-treated teeth. Using 3D printed and natural teeth participants will judge and modify access cavities. In a next step restorative treatment plans and restoration designs are discussed. This includes planning for possible post placement if needed. This hands-on workshop helps practitioners to understand and differentiate endodontic outcomes and ultimately provide better care. The hands-on portion of this workshop uses 3D printed teeth and handpieces to practice restorative outcomes and possible post placement.

Implants in a Compromised Esthetic Zone The esthetic zone, the visible field of a patient’s smile, continues to be a technique-sensitive area for successful implant outcomes. The program reviews current concepts for successful functional and esthetic outcomes in both intact and compromised extraction sites. Additionally, novel concepts are reviewed specific for the management of compromised esthetic sites that lack soft tissue, hard tissue, or both. Review current concepts for successful functional and esthetic outcomes in both intact and compromised extraction sites. A “Decision tree” for the management of compromised esthetic sites is introduced.

Implant Biomechanics and Occlusion There are two main ways that implants can fail; infection or mechanical stress. This program looks at the differences between implants and teeth in their stress distributions, shape, and function. By treating implant prosthetics with these differences in mind we can minimize porcelain fractures, screw loosening/breakage and implant failure. Attendees will learn whether or not short implants are viable, to splint or not, and whether the new ceramic biomaterials are viable options to minimize fractures. Minimizing implant and prosthetic failures due to stress are discussed.

The Relationship between Orthodontics and Temporomandibular Disorder What is the connection between temporomandibular disorder (TMD) and orthodontics? The first goal is to answer several questions regarding TMD. What are some of the causes of TMD? Does orthodontic treatment lead to an increase in TMD symptoms? Are certain occlusal relationships more likely to develop TMD symptoms? Can we say that orthodontics can treat or prevent TMD? Some of the evidence to answer these questions is reviewed. The second goal of the program is to discuss some of the methods used to treat patients with TMD symptoms before, during, and after orthodontic treatment.

Psychosocial Benefits of Orthodontic Treatment Does orthodontic treatment convey benefits beyond just creating a stable and harmonious occlusion? This essay is an investigation of the effects of orthodontics on self-esteem, self-perception, and how others perceive those who have had, and who have not had, orthodontic treatment. This exploration is being done while also examining the issues facing children with Medicaid in New York State. There are many children who have significant orthodontic treatment needs, but who are not eligible for orthodontic care under current state regulations. Can we predict how, because of the lack of access to orthodontic care, these children will fare in our increasingly competitive and demanding world? That answer requires a serious discussion.

ABC’s of Interceptive Orthodontics This program reviews four interceptive orthodontic malocclusion categories. First, dental development abnormalities including traumatic occlusion/functional shifts, abnormal eruption patterns/dental impactions and severe crowding are reviewed. Second, facial growth modification which comprises transverse inadequacy: crossbites, adenoid facies “long face” syndrome, as well as skeletal malocclusions are discussed. Next this essay explores habit intervention, including thumb sucking, finger biting, and tongue thrusts. The program concludes with prevention: breastfeeding; diet/jaw growth; space maintenance and positioners; diagnosis of clinical conditions that require interceptive orthodontics; and sharing the treatment of modalities for different categories of interceptive orthodontics.

Regeneración Tisular Guiada de Defectos Periodontales Las terapias regenerativas tienen como objetivo mejorar la anatomía local, regenerando los tejidos periodontales mejorando de esta forma el pronóstico del diente. La regeneración tisular guiada o RTG es una técnica utilizada para la regeneración del tejido periodontal en los defectos interóseos y las áreas de lesión de la furca, causada por enfermedades periodontales que consiste en la aplicación quirúrgica de una membrana biocompatible, que funciona como material de barrera para aislar y proteger el defecto óseo. La regeneración periodontal se define como la regeneración del hueso alveolar, ligamento periodontal y cemento en una superficie radicular dañada por una enfermedad de tipo periodontal. Las barreras indicadas para ser utilizadas en la técnica de la RTG pueden ser elaboradas de diferentes materiales, como politetrafluoruroetileno expandido (ePTFE), ácido poliláctico, sulfato de calcio, ácido poliglicólico y colágeno.

Fibrotomía Supracrestal Circunferencial Post Ortodoncia Mantener los dientes en sus posiciones después del tratamiento ortodóncico es a menudo la parte más difícil de un plan de tratamiento. Los Ortodoncistas deben tener un conocimiento profundo de la etiología de la recidiva y estar familiarizados con diferentes métodos para reducirla. La Fibrotomía supracrestal es una técnica quirúrgica de tejido blando destinada a seccionar las fibras periodontales alrededor del cuello de los dientes. Al ser la fibrotomía supracrestal un procedimiento quirúrgico, por lo general se reserva para los dientes severamente rotados.

Digital Technologies: Your Office to Lab-All Digital
CAD/CAM technology has the advantage of reduced clinical chair-time and reduced laboratory costs. The accuracy of these techniques has improved to the point where they are now comparable to conventional techniques. This presentation will review the current technology which allows the clinician in any specialty to deliver amazing results by digital communication with the laboratory. Ideal aesthetics and tissue preservation cannot be achieved seamlessly. In addition, anterior implant protocols will be reviewed and the use of CAD/CAM Provisionals for ideal tissue contour will be demonstrated. The fabrication of ceramic full coverage restorations and veneers, with an in-office technique, will also be demonstrated. Occlusion principles will be discussed as they relate to new materials and their application in private practice.
Have you ever wondered why, after prepping a second molar for a crown, the occlusal of the prep is in contact with the opposing tooth? Every time we alter the chewing surface of a tooth we impact the entire stomatognathic system. Often the patient adapts to these changes. But when they don’t it can jeopardize the restoration, the other teeth, and can cost us the patient’s trust, not to mention our time. In this program, explore the challenges of occlusion we face, as dentists in a restorative practice, and how we can utilize this information to make our dentistry more predictable.

Implant dentistry has been gaining popularity in everyday dentistry. Most general practitioners are now restoring implants and doing the surgery as well. However, there is a big concern when it comes to managing immediate implant placement in the esthetic zone. Growing awareness and need for immediate restoration after tooth extraction often requires special considerations for optimal results. In addition, innovative implant designs are discussed with their clinical application. This hands-on program has been designed specifically for general dentists that wish to perform immediate implant placements and restorations in the maxillary anterior region. In this unique hands-on workshop, basic anatomy, implant design, surgical principles as well as tissue biology pertaining to immediate implant supported restorations are reviewed.

In general, there is an increasing trend toward providing dental care to children before the age of three. The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry and the American Association of Pediatrics currently recommend that children receive their first initial dental evaluation within the first year of life. This change in attitude allows for early dental intervention with pregnant women, infants and parents to determine a risk status based on parental information. Dentists are able to perform a screening risk assessment and examination of infants’ mouths. Early care provides an opportunity to educate and inform parents about their children’s oral health. Anticipatory guidance/counseling for children’s dental health is an important part of preventive care, and may be the most effective way to prevent problems that traditional infectious-disease surgical models have failed to address, such as early childhood caries (ECC). The use of anti-bacterials and remineralizing treatments like fluoride varnish have proven to be effective prevention strategies in reducing ECC incidence in young children.

As dentistry continues its blending of CAD/CAM with today’s restorative materials, the attendees will see how the presenters blend these technologies and materials into their everyday general dentistry clinical procedures. From treatment planning and decision making to actual case and material selection, it’s all about what is best for the patient. Part 1 of this 2 day “live” presentation will focus on lifelike indirect composites that fill the void when traditional composites will not offer a long lasting solution and crowns simply remove and move to the remaining tooth. This “live” demonstration will follow the adage, less is more.

The model of anticipatory care guidance is valuable for general dentists and dental auxiliaries because its emphasis is preventive rather than restorative care. A comprehensive perinatal and infant oral care program utilizes risk assessments at regularly scheduled dental visits; counseling sessions with parents during either regular dental visits or additional visits scheduled if a child is deemed at risk; preventive treatment such as the application of fluoride varnish or sealants; and, outreach and incentives to reinforce attendance. Combination therapy approach of Calcium Phosphate and Fluoride targeting young children and their caregivers, as well as, targeted outreach to pregnant women through prenatal programs also effectively improves infant oral health. Facilitating access to early and regular dental care is a crucial part of any effective intervention strategy with intervention techniques tailored to the community being served.

Hybridization vs. Biomineralization - An Evolution In the early 1980’s the dentin hybridization model was proposed. Over the following years there have been generations of dentin hybridization adhesives created to attempt to overcome the shortcomings of the previous generations or to attempt to make the process easier for clinical application. However, it has been determined that the average life span of of typical resin bonded composite restorations is 5.7 years at a cost of approximately five billion dollars annually in the United States alone. Various agents have been proposed and subsequently used in an attempt to create more long lasting hybrid bonds. However, it has been stated that the use of these agents applied either separately or mixed with the primer/adhesive agents appear to only retard rather than prevent bond degradation. It is obvious that a different pathway needs to be traveled and it is proposed the use of bioactive/biomineralization integrating materials could be the direction to success.
La Odontología Gerenciada Los cambios en el modo de hacer comercio, el comportamiento del consumidor, las leyes del mercado, entre otros aspectos, han impactado en la forma de hacer negocio; la odontología no escapa a estas realidades, también la atención oral de connotación social, vista desde el Estado, ha de ser tomada en cuenta como una estructura competitiva. La clínica dental, es una organización con características similares a cualquier otra empresa, por ende, debe ser gestionada como tal, es por ello, que el odontólogo para poder tener un ejercicio profesional productivo y rentable, debe compartir la práctica clínica con los criterios gerenciales. Al tocar este tema, estaremos dando pautas para aplicar conceptos administrativos, financieros y de marketing en el ambiente odontológico.

Sabemos que ya en la actualidad contamos con materiales que permiten lograr restauraciones perfectamente invisibles y en teoría muy duraderas; el problema es que hay tanta variedad de adhesivos, cementos y resinas que no sabemos cuales seleccionar en cada caso. También, se habla de adhesivos “Universales” pero estos, no siempre lo son. Tenemos que saber cuales materiales son los más efectivos y además saber las limitantes que tienen. Los nuevos monómeros y componentes de algunos adhesivos los han hecho mucho mejores y mucho más versátiles pero hay que conocerlos y usarlos adecuadamente. El objetivo de esta conferencia es el demostrar el uso adecuado de los adhesivos y materiales dentales estéticos y también el manejo adecuado de los tejidos de la cavidad bucal para poder así lograr lo que llamamos restauraciones con estética total y sobre todo muy Seguras en lo que se refiere a su longevidad y función adecuada

Innovations in Immediate Implant Placement Implant dentistry has been gaining popularity in everyday dentistry. Most general practitioners are now restoring implants and doing the surgery as well. However, there is a big concern when it comes to managing immediate implant placement in the esthetic zone, infected sites and achieving good primary stability. The need for immediate restoration after tooth extraction often requires special considerations for optimal results. This program has been designed specifically for general dentists that wish to perform immediate implant placements and restorations in the maxillary anterior region.

Involving the entire dental team in creating a patient-centric environment is critical to differentiating your practice. Research shows many potential patients see dental health care as a commodity rather than a necessity. The dental team is the face of the practice and your team is the ambassador of patient-centric care. Exceptional service begins within the practice and works its way out to create a referral business beyond reproach. Each member of the team must be given the tools to be a leader in his or her respective area and the team must also be given the autonomy to implement those tools.

Posterior Maxilla: A Challenge in Implant Dentistry Various bone-grafting materials have been studied for use in maxillary sinus grafts to accelerate the bone healing process like: autogenous bone, frozen bone, freeze-dried bone, xenogeneic bone, demineralized freeze-dried bone, b-TCP, and hydroxyapatite. Also, the trans-crestal osteome technique without any graft has also been employed and widely studied and is also found to be successful. An ideal maxillary sinus bone-grafting material should provide biologic stability, ensure volume maintenance, and allow the occurrence of new bone infiltration and bone remodeling. After the restoration of the implant has been completed, there should be no bone loss and the materials should be stable and there should be a predictable success rate. This presentation provides an outline and compares the various graft materials employed in indirect sinus lifts and their outcomes. Evidence based results from multi-center clinical trials are highlighted along with case presentations and discussions.

Practitioners of cosmetic dentistry, periodontal surgery, and restorative dentistry are the beneficiaries of a new multi-wavelength dental laser (Blazzer). An extensive array of practical intraoral applications is now possible through the singular, simultaneous, or consecutive emission of visible and infrared laser energy. Minimally invasive soft tissue surgical procedures, rapid curing of light-activated dental materials, laser-assisted teeth whitening, and adjunctive use in caries detection are some of the capabilities of this compact and lightweight instrument. It provides several advantages over existing dental lasers. Clinical utility and safety are enhanced with a built-in power meter that verifies output of laser power to the target tissue, thus minimizing concerns regarding under- or overtreatment. This feature, combined with a built-in Joule counter that measures and displays the amount of energy delivered to the target tissue or dental material, permits precise control over laser dosimetry for optimum effect.
Learn:
the versatility and time-saving benefits of a new multi-wavelength dental laser
how this laser can expand clinical capabilities in soft tissue surgery, photopolymerization, teeth whitening, and diagnosis of carious lesions

Modificación Digital del Perfil El análisis facial ha adquirido una gran relevancia en el diagnóstico, pronóstico y elaboración del plan de tratamiento en Ortodoncia, hasta el punto de considerarse que la Ortodoncia se encuentra en la era del análisis facial y en la práctica este precede al análisis cefalométrico y cuando encontramos discrepancia entre los dos, el análisis facial es el que predomina. Para realizar el pronóstico ortodóncico nos fundamentamos en la configuración predictiva del triángulo de Tweed haciendo modificaciones digitales del perfil con lo cual se hace visible un objetivo de tratamiento que nos permite demostrarle al paciente.

What Every Dentist Treating Sleep Needs to Ask their Physicians With the vast numbers of untreated Obstructive Sleep Apnea (est. of 52 million Americans with OSA) patients being unrecognized, untreated or undertreated, it is imperative to unite forces between the Sleep Dentist and the Sleep Physician; especially considering the numerous hazards and untoward medical sequela that can result from failure to resolve Obstructive Sleep Apnea in this country and in the world. However, the gap in knowledge and understanding of what the individual sleep physician and sleep dentist brings to the table is massive, and this divide is growing daily. It is obvious that we need to learn to work together in a comprehensive approach that is ultimately the best formula for better patient outcomes. This seminar is a roadmap that allows the sleep dentist to navigate a much-needed partnership and collaboration with their local sleep physicians and will outline the necessary steps to achieve this goal.

Of the ten leading causes of mortality in the United States, chronic, low-level inflammation contributes to the pathogenesis of at least seven. These include heart disease, cancer, chronic lower respiratory disease, stroke, Alzheimer’s disease, diabetes, and nephritis. Pain, swelling, redness, and warmth are all signs of inflammation arriving at the site and alerting your body and initiating the healing process. But when inflammation becomes “chronic” – individuals are at the greatest risk for significant health challenges. Inflammation becomes chronic when it transitions from an acute response and remains a constant low-level physiological response and in time- a threat. Modulating the pro-inflammatory process is an imperative to decreasing the morbidity associated with aging in America.

the role of chronic inflammation in the morbidity and mortality of disease prevalent in our culture

This program is designed for the general practitioner as well as all specialists. Everyone from the first year dental student, your receptionist to the veteran about to retire will benefit from this course. Today many of our patients treat their own anxiety by self-medicating themselves or expect us to offer them a magic pill. There is no simple solution but the clinician shows you how to be proactive and avoid serious complications. This program demonstrates, through case studies, how utilizing TLC, Nitrous Oxide, Alcohol, Anxiolysis, Oral and I.V. Sedation, can help and manage the apprehensive patient. We will also role-play and simulate dental office emergencies. A significant amount of time focuses on airway management by the solo operator or as a team member working with an anesthesiologist. Everyone participates in hands-on workshops with a variety of airway adjuncts to treat airway emergencies. Treating the apprehensive man, woman or child can be very rewarding. When managed properly they remain loyal for life andoften refer their friends and family. Everything from tender loving care to general anesthesia will be covered. Other courses teach you how to medicate, communicate and delegate. This course pulls it all together and satisfies the NYS mandated12 hour CE requirement in enteral, parenteral and I.V. sedation.

Oral Manifestations of Systemic Disease Oral and maxillofacial pathology is commonly encountered in clinical practice. It is important for the clinician to recognize that even innocuous-looking lesions could represent manifestations of a systemic disease. Similarly, manifestations of systemic disease could mimic other, more commonly occurring pathology within the oral cavity. This program uses clinical cases as the basis for reinforcement of important clinical and diagnostic principals used to evaluate, diagnose and treat localized oral pathology associated with common and unusual systemic diseases. To increase awareness that the oral cavity may be the only site of involvement in patients with systemic disease. The emphasis is on the valuable role the dental practitioner in interdisciplinary health care.

Frenectomías en Bebes La Anquiloglosia se define como lengua atada. Es la imposiblidad de protruir o retruir la lengua y genera problemas de crecimiento y habla. El tiempo de la operación siempre ha sido controversial. Muchos clínicos apuestan por esperar a que el niño tenga 3 años a más y se evidencien los problemas de habla, mientras que otros, donde nos incluímos creemos que la intervención debe ser dentro de los primeros meses de vida ya que así el aprendizaje al habla, por ser un tema neurolingüístico no será alterado.

The field of oral implantology has become a discipline of dentistry demonstrating predictable outcomes in the reconstruction of the partially edentulous patient. Immediate implant placement with provisionalization (IIPP) is a long-established and scientifically proven approach to restoring a missing tooth. The delivery of healthcare is moving toward minimally invasive approaches to reduce treatment time, pain, and cost. Immediate implant placement with provisionalization (IIPP) acts in concert with this philosophy in that it combines surgical and restorative procedures, decreases appointments, and eliminates the need for a transitional removable partial denture. Case presentations illustrate the concept in its entirety to maximize understanding.
Learn to:
understand the scientific evidence that supports immediate placement/provisionalization

CBCT and TADs in Contemporary Orthodontics The introduction of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) and computer software in orthodontics has allowed orthodontists to provide more accurate diagnosis and treatment. The most common use of CBCT imaging allows orthodontists to visualize the precise position of supernumerary or impacted teeth, especially impacted canines. In doing so, the exact angulation of impaction and proximity of adjacent roots can be evaluated by orthodontists, allowing them to choose vector forces for tooth movement while minimizing root resorption. Even though 2-dimensional panoramic images can be used to view the position of the impacted canines, they have limitations because it is not possible to evaluate the impacted tooth position 3-dimensionally. An accurate knowledge of root position improves the determination of success in orthodontic treatment.
Temporary anchorage devices (TADs) offer a practical way to provide anchorage for various types of tooth movement, especially when used in concert with CBCT to aid in orthodontic diagnosis and treatment planning, treatment simulation, proper placement of TADs, and assessment of skeletal and dental changes.
Learn:
the clinical situations for which CBCT is used
diagnosis and treatment of impacted and ankylosed teeth with the aid of CBCT
clinical applications and biomechanical considerations of TADs in challenging cases

Regeneration of Degenerated Dentitions Degeneration of dentitions occurs as a result of loss of teeth and periodontium. The role played by the orthodontist in the reconstruction of the degenerating dentition has been influenced by an improved understanding of the tissue reaction to the interaction between orthodontics and periodontal treatment. By distributing the available teeth in an optimal position for prosthetic reconstruction and by generating necessary alveolar bone for implants the long term maintenance of reconstructed dentition is enhanced. Mini-implants as bone maintainers and semi-permanent replacements are demonstrated.

demonstrate the advantage of interdisciplinary treatments

Periodontal disease is associated as a contributing factor in many systemic diseases. Therefore, the need for treating it can be essential for the patients’ overall health. Traditional therapy via pocket reduction surgery, which may be perceived as invasive and painful, can prevent patients from seeking treatment. The FDA approved LANAP protocol, addresses periodontitis by following the basic tenets of biology, regeneration and wound healing. This protocol takes periodontics back to its “ROOTS” of saving the dentition in a much more patient friendly, predictable and tissue sparing way.

Immediate implant placement in the extraction socket has been well-documented in literature. With adequate case selection and with the appropriate technique, overall treatment times and patient morbidity and discomfort can be minimized. Until recently, there has been no organized, evidence-based treatment protocol. Biological understanding and specific classification systems can aid clinicians in the decision making process for a successful outcome with this type of procedures. Whilst the success of immediate implant placement in the anterior site depends primarily on the implant positioning and the available soft and hard tissues at the site, molar extraction sockets can also be categorized based upon the bone available within the socket for stabilization of the immediately placed implant. The relevant anatomy of the socket and the tooth, as well as, a step-by-step treatment protocol is reviewed. Issues including gap distance, initial stabilization and anatomic limitations are addressed.

Diagnoses are arrived at methodically, through a systematic and disciplined application of knowledge. This program is designed to reacquaint the oral health care providers with common mucosal presentations. There is an axiomatic principle that governs clinical practice: “common things occur commonly.” According to a recent study, there are a handful of relatively common oral mucosal presentations that comprise almost three-quarters of oral lesions for which patients seek consultation. This program provides a review and clinical update of those commonly encountered pathologic entities, as well as, the deployment of the appropriate treatment algorithm. Clinical presentations from aphthae to zoster are covered in an effort to improve the clinician’s comfort level in diagnosing and managing these conditions.
Learn to:
expand your clinical diagnostic and treatment algorithms
correlate oral presentations with systemic possibilities

Dentistry is changing at such a rapid rate that it is almost impossible to keep up with all the advancements in ceramics and materials available for indirect restorations. The two hottest categories in dentistry today are the new monolithic ceramic materials and the options for abutments and crowns on implants. Join the clinician as he discusses new ceramic materials, how they are fabricated, and the advantages and disadvantages of these new materials. Further discussion includes the use of PMMA (lab fabricated milled resin) in sequencing rehabilitation treatment and the use of lab fabricated provisionals in optimizing implant aesthetics. Custom impression transfer posts and custom “tooth-colored” implant abutments are discussed and learn how to utilize these custom abutments and provisionals to optimize soft tissue aesthetics. Lastly, the clinician provides an up-to-date, concise description of new dentinal adhesive agents and cements, including the new self-adhesive bioactive cements.

The preponderance of periodontal disease and peri-implantitis is a growing concern. Patient preference for minimally invasive treatments encourages persons afflicted with these pathologic conditions to seek effective intervention. The well-established LANAP protocol for treating moderate-to-severe periodontitis satisfies these desires. It uses a digitally pulsed Nd:YAG laser (PerioLase®) to actually regenerate the attachment apparatus. Human histological studies confirm the ability of this protocol to regenerate new cementum, new periodontal ligament, and new alveolar bone on previously diseased root surfaces. Further, it does so without the need for biologics, exogenous growth factors, bone grafts, artificial membranes, scaffolds, scalpels, or sutures that are commonly used in more invasive surgical procedures. Similarly, peri-implantitis patients have a related minimally invasive LAPIP protocol, using the same Nd:YAG laser, to help restore health and increase longevity of their implants. Results of a multicenter clinical trial, utilizing radiographic evidence and 3D modeling, confirm the ability of this protocol to control the peri-implantitis infection and reverse bone loss around ailing implants.
Learn:
the advantages of a digitally pulsed Nd:YAG laser in periodontal tissue treatment

Introducing the Double-Tilt Precision Attachment Case Most practitioners believe fixed bridgework is the optimal choice for every restorative problem. Where there is not enough bony support, fixed bridgework on implants has a poor prognosis. Patients may not be good candidates for extensive grafting procedures or may not want to undergo extensive surgery. This program demonstrates how the double-tilt precision attachment case can solve many restorative problems. Numerous case examples documented with x-rays during the last 70 years will be presented showing why removable bridgework is often the best treatment option for patients. How the double-tilt precision attachment case can be used successfully with both natural tooth and implant abutments is also presented.

We Know the Mouth Is Connected to the Body, Now What?
Although the miscommunication between the medical doctors and the dental industry is starting to level out, there is still a huge disconnect from the patient, dental professional and medical doctor. As dental professionals, we understand the issue and most medical doctors do too, but how do we work together to accomplish overall health? How do we get the medical doctors to keep the oral cavity top of mind when a patient comes in with an inflammatory induced disease and vice versa? Education between the medical doctor, dentist, and most importantly the actual patient is essential. In this course, you will learn how to make a seemingly impossible task not so impossible.

If the airway is compromised, treating the “root cause” of the compromised airflow would be optimal; but what about the patient for whom a mandibular advancement device is the appropriate treatment to manage better sleep and airway? Every patient is entitled to know what optimal is, the benefit, the likely consequences of suboptimal, and the compromises of anything less.

This program is designed for the general practitioner as well as all specialists. Everyone from the first year dental student, your receptionist to the veteran about to retire will benefit from this course. Today many of our patients treat their own anxiety by self-medicating themselves or expect us to offer them a magic pill. There is no simple solution but the clinician shows you how to be proactive and avoid serious complications. This program demonstrates, through case studies, how utilizing TLC, Nitrous Oxide, Alcohol, Anxiolysis, Oral and I.V. Sedation, can help and manage the apprehensive patient. We will also role-play and simulate dental office emergencies. A significant amount of time focuses on airway management by the solo operator or as a team member working with an anesthesiologist. Everyone participates in hands-on workshops with a variety of airway adjuncts to treat airway emergencies. Treating the apprehensive man, woman or child can be very rewarding. When managed properly they remain loyal for life andoften refer their friends and family. Everything from tender loving care to general anesthesia will be covered. Other courses teach you how to medicate, communicate and delegate. This course pulls it all together and satisfies the NYS mandated12 hour CE requirement in enteral, parenteral and I.V. sedation.
Learn:
to understand how to effectively manage apprehensive children and adults
to recognize the difference between Anxiolysis, Minimal - Moderate Sedation, Deep Sedation and General Anesthesia

This is a 12 Hour continuing education program designed to satisfy the New York State Anesthesia/Sedation requirement. This is a 2-day, 12 hour course. To receive certification you must attend both Tuesday and Wednesday programs.
As restorative materials, adhesives, and cements, continue to evolve, change, and improve it becomes more difficult for restorative dentists to keep up with the latest advances. With increasingly higher patient expectations for long term clinical success, it is important that the dentist have an understanding and working knowledge of these materials in order to make sound decisions. This half day lecture will discuss factors affecting the selection of indirect restorative materials that will satisfy the aesthetic and functional goals of the patient as conservatively as possible. Cases will be used to demonstrate the use of these materials, bonding agents, and cements in different clinical situations.

Minimally Invasive Approach to Dentistry In past years, a radiographic radiolucency on a tooth surface inevitably meant a dental restoration was necessary. In today’s day and age of dentistry, however, we now have a wide array of products available to us that allow for a less intrusive approach. This lends the added benefit of maintaining the structural integrity of the tooth.

Esthetics & Stability in Implant Restorations Facial esthetics largely determines both tooth position and gum outline. Support from implants then should provide stability for the final restoration. Use of anterior and posterior cantilevers, pink porcelain and angled screw channels can facilitate restorative designs. Prosthodontic principles of precision fit, retention form and cross arch stabilization offer methods to improve stability and the long term prognosis of the implant restorations. This essay explores the interplay of final esthetic and restorative stability in order to achieve the best treatment outcome.

Comprender y Tratar Disfunción Temporomandibular Los protocolos de tratamiento de TMD a menudo son impulsados por un diagnóstico físico parcial, considerando solo los dientes, los músculos involucrados directamente en la masticación y la ATM, sin abordar la relación holística e intraarticular del sistema masticatorio con el sistema músculo-esquelético del orificio, y lo más importante sin abordar el comportamiento individual y la psicología. Los médicos tienden a ver lo que tratan y tratan lo que ven, desafortunadamente esto no es suficiente en los DTM. La terapia con férula representa una de las terapias reversibles más utilizadas en todo el mundo en el tratamiento de los TMD, pero con diferentes reacciones y respuesta de un paciente a otro. En otros casos, las férulas oclusales se usan como herramienta de diagnóstico en el rompecabezas de TMD. La mayoría de las férulas oclusivas inmediatas utilizadas para la terapia de TMD están diseñadas para resistir las fuerzas oclusivas determinadas por la fuerza de los músculos masticatorios. Fabricando una férula oclusal no estamos ayudando a nuestro paciente a manejar y controlar TMD, solo estamos ofreciendo un analgésico que cambia el deber de ajustar el desplazamiento de la mandíbula a un nuevo conjunto de unidades motoras acomodativas de los músculos masticatorios, abrumando el grabado muscular. Cuando de hecho necesitamos necesitamos traducir la mente humana en términos biológicos, tratando de descubrir la interacción intrincada individual de: tensión muscular; Susceptibilidad genética/determinación de genes; Psicología cognitiva y biología cerebral; factores psicosociales.

Prevención y Manejo de las intercurrencias y Complicaciones en la Armonización Orofacial
Las interacciones son problemas posibles de ocurrir, de manejo y resoluciones previsibles, no siendo encarados como complicaciones. Son normalmente leves, transitorios y técnico-dependientes. Otros, más graves y de difícil resolución pueden ser llamados complicaciones y se intenta alertar para su prevención. En la Armonización Orofacial se destacan procedimientos que deben ser seguros, efectivos, con bajo índice de efectos adversos y que ofrecen satisfacción a los pacientes. El conocimiento profundo de la anatomía facial, entendimiento de las propiedades de los biomateriales, de las causas de los efectos adversos, de su evolución y su manejo adecuado, son de importancia fundamental para el éxito final del procedimiento.

Fototerapia en la Armonización Facial La fototerapia, modula la respuesta inflamatoria, combate la formación de radicales libres, minimiza los efectos del envejecimiento y puede ser idealmente combinada con la Toxina Botulínica y rellenos faciales a base de Ácido Hialurónico, lo que potencia sus efectos. Los equipos utilizados son el LÁSER (Luz de amplificación por estimulación de radiación) y LED (Diodo emisor de luz) que emiten diferentes longitudes de onda que tienen interacción en la actividad celular. La técnica es no invasiva y utiliza emisión luminosa para revitalización cutánea y cicatriciales, reducción del dolor y edema.

Tecnicas Diagnosticas en Embellecimiento Dento Facial Cada vez toma más importancia la planificación digital y análisis previos a los procedimientos clínicos ya sea en encías, labios, y área facial de los pacientes. Dentro de los componentes de la sonrisa, tiene como protagonistas a los incisivos centrales y coadyuvan los laterales, caninos y hasta premolares. Una encía saludable y bien proporcionada, será el área anexa y complementaria a los dientes, que se debe de mostrar en proporción, en el momento del análisis de la sonrisa. Finalmente, los labios forman ese marco que debe mostrar en armonía la expresión ideal buscando la belleza, la cual solo se logra, cuando el Phi ( 1.618) está presente.

A fundamental aspect for treatment planning is bone availability. Understanding the basics of bone grafting and reconstruction techniques is a critical factor for successful implant placement. Socket management, sinus augmentation, vertical and horizontal augmentation are different methods of grafting that incorporate similar surgical principles. Short implant and narrow implants can be an alternative. Titanium has been a gold standard, but due to high esthetic demands and increasing incidence of allergies and the demand for metal‐free reconstructions, Zirconia can be a potential substitute.

Sagittal First eliminates competing force vectors inherent in traditional methodologies when traction is employed concurrent with fixed appliance treatment. The Carriere Motion appliance is a technology that first addresses the patient’s sagittal dimension to establish a Class I platform prior to comprehensive orthodontic treatment. This is accomplished usually within the initial 3 months of treatment. Called the ‘Sagittal First’ protocol, it is not limited to only solving Class II cases. It is easily applied to Class III treatment plans as well. For the first time, there is a philosophy and technique that can be applied to all A-P corrections—Class IIs and IIIs.

Attendees work on a typodont model with two roots placed in the anterior mandible. Two root attachment systems are discussed and utilized. Each root is prepared separately using the proprietary reamers and countersink armamentarium. The attachment is then cemented into the root. The process of how the male or female attachment is picked up in bisacryl is performed for each of the attachment system. This element is then changed and a new one is replaced, simulating what is done chairside by the dentist.
